What is special education?

In the classroom, students have many different learning needs. When students are struggling due to disabilities and challenging circumstances, teachers need special education training to help these students learn and grow. The special education discipline focuses on developing and applying tools and methods to help students overcome challenges and improve their education outcomes.
With special tools, assessments, and management skills, special education teachers can help students with physical disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, or other challenges. With these tools, special education teachers work to help these students build toward a more successful future.
