IS SPECIAL EDUCATION BECOMING TOO EXPENSIVE

Special education caters to the need of children requiring special attention in the form of different types of care and education. Since that is why expenses in providing the special education are high. Some people argue that it is not worth to spend so much money on special education when it can be taught in other simpler ways. Owing to the emotional side related to special education for special children, it remains one of the most challenging issues in education.If students with learning disabilities are favored in any way, there is huge cry of unfair competition by mainstream students. Many teachers and students say that if people with learning disabilities are given different and easier sections to study, it will lead to unfair competence among everyone.

THE CHALLENGE OF TEACHING

Scholars have become tired of framing stringent policies on curbing violence in schools and colleges but it seems that school violence incidents are not lessening at a rate as they should be. Some say it's the fault of burdening educational system while others propagate it to be just the recklessness of youth. Violent movies and effects of violent video games are other major reasons for increasing school violence among kids. School violence and bullying are certainly a reality of today's school and college campus.

SO WHERE TO FROM HERE

Pretoria - Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga, facing a clamour for her resignation over the Limpopo textbook debacle, has been given a boost by the country’s nine education MECs, who have presented a united front in support of her.

The Council of Education Ministers said it was unfair for the whole education sector, which had scored improved matric pass rates and pro-poor policies, such as no-fee schools and nutrition schemes, under Motshekga, to be tarnished by the textbook debacle. .

MINISTER OF ADUCATION:ANGIE MOTSEGA

Yet at the 91^st birthday rally of the South African Communist Party on Sunday, the secretary of the Young Communist League Buti Manamela said that firing Motshekga may not be a smart move since the rot actually lies deep in her department. 
In an interview with Daily Maverick, he said that he did not specifically call for the DoBE minister to be fired because this was really the prerogative of the president. “[Zuma] has commissioned a report on the matter and he will decide what action to take based on that report, whether it is a rap on the knuckles, or redeploying [Motshekga], or whatever,” Manamela said.
