I have also chosen to use the Term “learning disabilities” as it is relevant to the UK and is the most up to date term currently in use. In addition, I have also gone into detail about the importance of research and evidence based practice.

durations converged with our previous statistically independent results to yield a model of tantrums as the expression of two independent but partially overlapping emotional and behavioral processes: Anger and Distress. Anger rises quickly, has its peak at or near the beginning of the tantrum, and declines thereafter.

There are several models used in schools to accommodate students with special needs. Mainstreaming, pull-out, push in, and paraprofessionals are a few of the models utilized in school systems. Every method has its advantages and disadvantages, and although it is not guaranteed that there will be an increase in the achievement levels of individuals with disabilities, often times children gain something out of it, whether it be academically or socially.
