Pamela,


Yes you should be very concerned if they are talking about transferring to a self contained special clss at another school. As I said, an IEP would come first and then, if the IEP could only be met in a more restrictive placement, then the move might be worth it.


Best Practice would strongly suggest that more intensive support should be offered where he is first, however.


IF it appears that there is a reason to consider full-time special class placement, then what I wrote in a thread above about what type of class is is (therapeutic vs entirely rewards and punishments) and what the other students are like is very important.
