So instead if a public system that can work for a majority of students we have no system? Vouchers so students who don't have issues will have private schools but that still won't work for those who cannot navigate the current system?
I know teachers who have quit because of problem students. It isn't fair for them to have to work with a student who bites or punches them when they try to protect the rest of the students.
I feel bad for parents who have a child, or more, who don't fit in the mainstream education system, however trying to force them to fit isn't helping anyone. The child isn't learning and other children are having their education disrupted.
We need real answers to the problem and integration doesn't seem to be a workable solution.

Integration is such a manipulative term too, with the connotations with segregation. Special classes have their flaws, but the status quo is not working.

Education is an investment, it won't always result in a profit but that's why we invest in all children, a few are bound to result in high returns.
