School for slow learners

hello readers,
      while we rehab professionals rejoice about the RTE benafits for the specially abled. (i am talking only for Navi Mumbai)

 I am a die hard believer in integration but the issues are numerous.... These children (slow learners) cant cope with the academic load. Even Learning disabled are singled out and troubled and teachers are over worked in class room with avg 50-60 children. In 2006-07 our rehab team had tried convincing a popular chain of schools to start remedial ed classrooms for slow learners with a view to prevent discrimination and also to help them academically but it dint work. Also most of these children being specially abled with otheir concommitant problems, integration is a far cry. Ultimately an exclusive school is the only option.
  
2of my immediate clients rt now face a blank future from June and i for a change seem to ve no words to say anything to them.
