(Sam) Workman of Brussels died in University Hospital, London on Tuesday January 20. He was 64. He was born and lived in Brussels and worked for the former Brussels, Morris and Grey Telephone Company BY: 'VV1LMA OKE Two members of the London regional office of the ministry of education attend- ed the Huron-Perth County catholic school board meet- ing Monday to outline some of the details of Bill 82, an act to amend the Education Act on behalf of special educa- tion. Sandy 'Posno and regional superintendent, Douglas G. I MacLeod, explained the bill will bring the first. major I change in education in years- moving education from "may" to "shall." The bill gives Education Minister Bette Stephenson the responsibility of ensuring ' all exceptional children in Ontario have appropriate special education programs and services Without the I payment of fees by parents or guardians. The act describes an ex- ceptional pupil as a pupil whose behavioural, commun- icational, intellectual, physi- cal or multiple exceptionali- ties are such that he is considered to need place- • ment in a special education program by a committee established for this purpose. Mr. MacLeod said it be- comes complicated when you combine the regulations with this Act, but "we should think in terms of the pupils and what it does for them." He said no one is excepted from education. He spoke of the provisions in the Act for "the hard -to- serve pupils--those assessed to be unable to profit from instruction offered by a The market at Brussels Stockyards met a good de- mand on steers.

He spoke of the trainable mentally retarded and also of the gifted pupil and how these are identified and' pro- vided for. He discussed the respon- sibilities of the board to provide the programs and services needed. He said when a child is identified as requiring special education a meeting must be held with the parent to discuss the program advised. Every board must have a special education advisory commit- tee, he said. A PLAN BY 1982 Mr. McLeod said the pro- gram is to instituted in 1985. In the meantime, the boards must have a comprehensive plan ready by May 1982 which will have to be submit- ted to the ministry for appro- val by M ay 1982. He reported there are 21 boards across Ontario (three in Western Ontario) in pilot projects which will provide planning guides for the whole program. He said these boards are working very well. When asked about the cost of implementing the whole program in 1985 he said pilot projects will give a better idea of what the costs will be to meet the needs of this special program. He said it is a challenge for the ministry of education to make the new Act work for the best for every child. The ministry will help boards by sending ministry people to act as liaison and to hold meetings. He said overall price of 82.10'.

And while there is some concern about the costs the bill is in place now. Superintendent John. Mc- Cauley said following the meeting that the Huron- Perth Catholic board has a solid base of special educa- tion programming with its present general disability classes at three schools- primary-junior at St. Joseph's School and inter- mediates at St. Michael's School, both in Stratford and all grades at St. Joseph's in Clinton. He said there is a continu- um of services right in the classroom with the teacher identifying and setting the program, and if she needs help she can go to 'the special education resource teacher in each of the 19 schools in the system (50 per cent in. each school). The third step when. the school has exhausted these two alternatives, and with the parent's co-opera- tion s is to apply to the Program Placement and Re- view Committee to review the child's needs in light of the possibility of both chang- es in program and place- ment. Mrs. Posno complimented the board on having a fairly sophisticated special educa- tion system with 10 or 12 special education teachers.
