Bureau of Administration Office of Overseas Schools The Foreign Service and Your Special Needs Child If your family is with the Department of State, the U.S. Agency for International Development, the Foreign Agricultural Service or the Foreign Commercial Service, the Department of State’s medical clearance process and its Standardized Regulations (DSSR) will govern the education allowances for your child. If you are employed by a government agency other than the ones listed above, check with your human resources division to find out if your agency also follows this clearance process. The Clearance Process The Office of Medical Services of the Department of State (MED) provides the medical clearance for personnel and families assigned overseas. This includes review of any special educational needs by the Employee Consultation Service (ECS), an office of Medical Services. If your child has never been evaluated, ECS may ask that a diagnostic evaluation be completed. Funding for the evaluation will be provided by MED and the employee’s health insurance or by the special needs education allowance. If your child is found to have special educational, behavioral, or emotional needs, then the child will be given a Class 2 medical clearance. This means that before an assignment can be finalized, a suitable educational or medical setting must be found for the child with special needs. ECS consults with the regional medical officers (RMO) and/or regional medical officers/psychiatrists (RMO/P) on specialized programs and facilities overseas. ECS also consults with the Department of State’s Office of Overseas Schools regarding the adequacy of programs available at the schools at post. Although the Class 2 clearance means that the child is no longer available for worldwide assignment, the purpose of this policy is to assure that the child’s unique needs and requirements will be met

YOUR CHILD HOME Your Child Topics UMHS HOME Learning Disabilities What are learning disabilities (LD)? If your child is not doing as well in school as they have the potential to, they may have a learning disability . Having a learning disability means having a normal intelligence but a problem in one or more areas of learning. A learning disability is a neurobiological disorder; people with LD have brains that learn differently because of differences in brain structure and/or function. If a person learns differently due to visual, hearing or physical handicaps, mental retardation, emotional disturbance, or environmental, cultural or economic disadvantage, we do not call it a learning disability. Some people with LD also have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADH D LDs can affect many different areas: Spoken language—problems in listening and speaking Reading—difficulties decoding or recognizing words or understanding them Written language—problems with writing, spelling, organizing ideas Math—trouble doing arithmetic or understanding basic concepts Reasoning—problems organizing and putting together thoughts Memory—problems remembering facts and instructions Social behavior—difficulties with social judgment, tolerating frustration and making friends

Search Learning disabilities The Globe and Mail reported Oct. 1, 2003 that an estimated three million Canadians suffer from learning disabilities (LD). People with LD are not stupid; they simply learn and retain information differently. The most common of the 70 LDs are dyslexia difficulty in reading, writing, spelling and math and auditory processing disorders. An LD may also be indicated in a person with problems of attention, memory, reasoning, coordination, social competence and emotional maturity. Learning disability is a neurological disorder of uncertain cause, due to either genetic or environmental factors, such as prenatal exposure to toxic substances. Scientists say dyslexia has to do with the way the brain is wired. Learning disabilities can happen in four areas of learning: Recording information in the brain (input).

Disability News and Events Resources Advisory Services Contact Us Education and Disability Universal Primary Education  by the year 2015 is one of the  Millennium Development Goals .  With estimates saying that 40 million of the 115 million children out of school have disabilities, universal primary education cannot be obtained without including children with disabilities. Education For All (EFA)  is based on the fundamental principle that all should have the opportunity to learn. Inclusive education is the education framework for including children with disabilities and was originally based on a principle stating that all should have the opportunity to learn together.  This is not a principle universally acknowledged.  On the contrary it is the subject of lively debate as it generates questions of a moral and educational nature.  In addition, there are practical issues, especially in developing countries with scarce resources and teacher expertise. The World Bank does not limit its focus to primary education, but includes secondary and tertiary education. Children and adults with disabilities do not only have the right to an education, they have the right to be part of the mainstream education system.

Students with disabilities travel same road to college By: AGNES DIGGS - Staff Writer Increasing numbers of students with disabilities are joining the ranks of those planning the transition from high school to colleges, universities, career and vocational schools. Their road to college is the same as everyone else's, with one difference: how they make the trip. Laws on the books prohibit schools from discriminating against students with disabilities, but it's important that they and their families realize the rules for higher learning are a whole different ball game compared with elementary and high school. "The difference between high school and college is that they (students) need to take more responsibility," said Loretta Bohl, coordinator of Disabled Student Services at MiraCosta Community College. "We help them, but we need them to take that first step and walk through our door, make contact with us. Some parents want to do it without having the student involved, but we can't do it (that way). If the student is not engaged in the whole process, it doesn't work." Bohl said being part of the planning is an important step toward independence. "We want to teach them advocacy skills, because they're going to have to learn how to advocate for themselves anyway," she said. "So we take baby steps."

STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS TUTORING Graduate teaching assistants and teaching fellows are often very committed teachers. If one of your students is struggling, naturally you want to help. Working one-to-one with a student to improve his/her study habits, writing skills or to help him/her to see the "big picture" can be rewarding. However, as a teaching assistant or instructor you have an obligation to every student in your class. If a student demands more attention or needs more assistance than you can reasonably provide, you should refer that student to the proper support network. If you are a teaching assistant, the first person you should turn to is the course instructor. The course instructor is the ultimate authority when it comes to granting extensions for late work or arranging make-up exams. In addition, the course instructor can usually offer valuable advice about working with students who are struggling with the class material. The University of Pittsburgh offers a number of other resources. The Writing Center is staffed by trained tutors and assists students in working through difficulties they are having with their writing. Once at the writing center, students are encouraged to talk about their papers and they are taught how to develop ideas and present their work in a clear (and accurately cited) manner. The Writing Center encourages appointments but walk-in help is available.
