All children, including children with special educational needs,
have a right to an education which is appropriate to their needs.
The aims of education for pupils with special educational needs are
the same as apply to all children. Education should be about
enabling all children, in line with their abilities, to live full
and independent lives so that they can contribute to their
communities, cooperate with other people and continue to learn
throughout their lives. Education is about supporting children to
develop in all aspects of their lives
– spiritual, moral, cognitive, emotional, imaginative, aesthetic,
social and physical.
