This publication provides an overview of Special Education in Ireland. It is written for parents and teachers who are involved with children who have learning difficulties, across the spectrum from dyslexia to autism. The international trend towards teaching these children in mainstream schools (as opposed to Special Schools) is being implemented in Ireland over the past ten years and this has serious implications for everyone. This publication describes how the entire process works, from identifying the initial signs of a learning difficulty through the assessment process and on to the formulation of the all-important \'Individual Education Plan\'.
