What does a Special Education Teacher do?
Special education teachers provide additional teaching to children with special educational needs in a number of different ways including:
– assessing and recording the child’s needs and progress
– setting specific, time-related targets for each child and agreeing these with the class teacher and principal
– teaching the children, either with the rest of the child’s class or in a separate room
– advising class teachers about differentiating the curriculum to suit different children
– meeting with and advising parents, accompanied by the class teacher, as needed
– meeting other professionals such as psychologists, speech and language therapists, visiting teachers in relation to a child’s special educational needs.
