Abstract
Rather than assigning (streaming) pupils to a specific class or category, and then, providing them with a pre-determined teaching
package or programme which has been worked out for a particular age or group, the preferred approach in special education
classrooms is to design a programme specifically for the individual pupil which is known as the lndividualised Education Programme(IEP). In this programme, the pupil's school experiences are tailored
to fit his/her needs rather than as is the case with some settings, to force the pupil to fit a particular programme.
