The integration of children with special needs into mainstream schools demands a reorganisation of staff and support levels both in schools and in the advisory services. Integration and the Support Service, illustrated with examples from a detailed case study of one Local Education Authority, shows how support services can most effectively be matched to needs and how new strategies for integration can be developed.
