Special Education: Bill Ready in a Few Weeks - What Changes

The Minister of Education, Athena Michailidou, announced that the bill for Special Education will be ready in a few weeks, and will undergo public consultation before being submitted to Parliament. Ms. Michailidou stressed that the bill is a significant reform, as there have been no changes in the relevant legislation for 27 years. The aim of the bill is to place children with disabilities at the center of the educational process, emphasizing pedagogy and providing opportunities for individualized programs, as well as strengthening the role of parents. In addition, training for teachers on issues of differentiation and meeting the individual needs of students is planned.
