Περίληψη

The purpose of this study is to examine the educational provision for children with visual impairment and multiple disabilities in Greece. In Greece, the needs of children with visual impairment and multiple disabilities are currently being met in two main types of school: 1) special schools for children who have VI and 2) other special schools, such as schools for children with SLD, PMLD or physical disabilities. The findings suggest that those types of school face sig¬nificant difficulties in meeting the complex needs of children with visual im¬pairments and multiple disabilities. In particular, these difficulties are related to significant areas of provision, such as the specialisation of the teaching staff, the learning and physical environment, the assistive technology and equipment, and the delivery of an appropriate curriculum.
