Register special school admission

  • Service description

    Has your child been diagnosed with special educational needs and cannot be adequately supported in another type of school?

    A special school offers your child with special educational needs a special learning environment. Despite a disability or other impairments, your child will have the opportunity to take advantage of educational programmes. These schools focus their educational work on different areas of special educational needs.

    The following special schools exist in Saxony-Anhalt:

    • Special schools for the blind and visually impaired
    • Special schools for the deaf or hearing-impaired
    • Special schools for the physically disabled
    • Special schools for the learning disabled
    • Special schools for language development
    • Special schools with equalisation classes
    • Special schools for the mentally handicapped

    Special schools work together with other general education and vocational schools and, under certain conditions, your child can obtain all qualifications from general education schools.

  • Procedure

    • Your child has been diagnosed with special educational needs.
    • You decide which special school to enrol your child at, taking into account which impairments or disabilities your child has.

  • Legal basis

  • What else should I know?

    Inclusion ( joint teaching of pupils with and without special educational needs):

    Joint teaching means that pupils with and without special educational needs are taught together in one class. The teachers at the school in question receive support from special needs teachers to organise the lessons. For pupils with special educational needs in joint lessons, support agreements or support plans can be important in order to establish a learning connection and enable the acquisition of school qualifications. Support is provided in the classroom through task organisation and encouragement. In addition, supplementary support measures can be offered in school or outside of school, e.g. through remedial lessons or targeted practice material, through additional support programmes within the scope of the school's possibilities.
