Abstract

The NFER recently undertook a research project examining the impact of delegation on LEA support services for special educational needs. This article reports data from one strand of the research – the way in which staff in schools responded to external support for pupils with special educational needs. Responses were varied and depended to a large extent on whether teachers saw clear benefits either to themselves or to the pupils about whom they were concerned (judged in terms of visible difference in performance within the classroom). Reference is made to the difference in ways in which support staff were managed in schools. Data suggested that collaborative work between mainstream staff and visiting support staff was not ensured in all circumstances; where it was weak, it was the pupil who was disadvantaged.
