摘要
Contemporary descriptions of service delivery for children with disabilities in Singapore have highlighted the presence of a dual education system, with mainstream education at one end and special education schools at the other. In this article, we present a background and brief history of how special education evolved in Singapore. Current programs and practices available for students with disabilities and some future directions are also discussed.
