[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 267516, member: 1991"] Fraan, he may have been using apoogy as delfection, but even so - I would have allowed him to do it because I think it WAS appropriate, or at least closeenough to appropriate, for him to begin the calming down process by beginning to apologise. As for her saying, "I'm the one you should be apologising to!" SHE needs to learn that a prompted apology is worth very little. Sounds like she has a great deal to learn in many areas, also sounds like she's not interested in learning because she already knows better than everyone else, including all the experts who have made recommendations she isn't following. On the topic of aide training - when a kid here gets support funding, it is mostly used to pay for an aide who will work in that child's classroom to assist the teacher. Sometimes the aide works with the child, or sometimes the aide supervises the class while the teachewr works with the child. But whichever it is - that aide gets some training and involvment in THAT CHILD's IEP and general needs. If there are multiple difficult children in a class with multiple funding - then the aide is trained for all such kids she will be needed to work with. It's highly specific for us. If a Special Education class is in place then there is a maximum of (I think) 8 kids per class, staffed by a minimum of one trained SpEd teacher and one trained aide. Their training will incorporate any disorders in their students and they also will be fully informed of each child's IEP, often actively involved in the Learning Team meetings and the IEP development. The aides are NOT there purely for the student in question, they are there to assist the teacher. But they are trained to be capable of working with that child's special needs, specifically. If the child changes schools, the funding goes with the child, but in 6 month blocks. Marg [/QUOTE]
