Very much so! In the UK, there are now 1,546 schools for special education. And there are plans to create more schools as, unfortunately, the number of children with special needs is on the rise. In 2021, 15.8% of all school-age children, or 1.4 million kids, were found to have special educational needs. Eighty-two per cent of students with SEN were in state-funded mainstream schools and 10% in specialised settings (8% in others). But there just aren’t enough supporting members. So needless to say the special education sector needs more qualified teachers and supporting staff.
