Mainstream schools are not the best place for deaf students unless they have decent interpreting services.

That's partially true but they need much more than just good interpreting services to be effective. Like certified teachers and programs that are adaptible and the mainstream teachers need to be sensetive to the needs of the deaf kids etc. etc.
 
Mainstream V Special Schools

I am doing my dissertation on this title as I am inerested in the debate on it, I want to eventually teach and work with deaf pupils, your quotes and replys are of interest, I still havnt come to a conclusion on the subject, I know to begin with i would have thought special schools would exclude the child from being included with other children and from the wider society, but reading and researching thier are also some strong views of the oposite side, i just cant see which is betetr for the chid, after all every childs different!
