Special Assistance Program (Australian education) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Special Assistance Program (Australian education)
The development and implementation of the Special Assistance Program in Victorian Primary Schools during the period 1979 - 1982 constituted the most significant innovation in the provision of special education services to children experiencing learning difficulties and in addressing declining literacy and numeracy standards. Up until the political directive to initiate this program was given, there had been no policy within the ''Department of Education and Early Childhood Development'' directing Principals of Primary Schools to develop special programs for pupils at risk of illiteracy and innumeracy.〔Newton, H. F. (1982) ''The Development of the Role of Special Assistance Resource Teacher in Primary Schools: the Utilisation of a Needs Assessment Technique to Identify and Assess the Requirements of Personnel in the Implementation of the Special Assistance Program in Schools'' Monash University, M.Ed Minor thesis. p.xiii〕() ==Declining literacy and numeracy skills== From the early 1960s, the Education Department of Victoria (Australia), had developed an extensive range of programs in primary schools that sought to develop the individual ability of each pupil. Also, the ratio of pupils to teachers in schools had been significantly reduced over time and schools had become much more independent in the development of school based remedial programs. In spite of this, there existed large numbers of children in Victorian primary and secondary schools urgently in need of special assistance in the essential skills of literacy and numeracy. This situation was reflected in the Australian Parliament's House of Representatives Select Committee on Specific Learning Difficulties in 1976. The committee had commissioned research by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) that found that 15% to 20% of children completing their primary education had not achieved a functional level of literacy.〔Parliament of Australia, Select Committee on Specific Learning Difficulties 1974-76 (14 October 1976) ''Learning Difficulties in Children and Adults''〕
