I fully agree with your views. Infect, I would say that all options for all
children should be made available i.e. The choice should be that of the
parents of child with disability whether he/she wants his/her child to be
educated in inclusive/integrated/special school. Of course in the case of
child with severe multiple disability home-based education is the best at
least till the time he/she is able to benefit from any other option.

Dear Friends,
We in blindness community cannot completely do away with home based
education. In case of children with severe multiple disabilities, we have
to keep the option open and would have to insist that all modes of education
namely, inclusive schools, integrated education, special schools, homebased
education are available at any given time. I would be keen on knowing the
views of our list members. In case, this is considered off-topic then may
be privately. But this does require a fair amount of discussion and debate.

Dear Friends,
Greetings!
Please look at the following link:
ndtv.com - highlights of president's address to parliament
Key points:
*
*
*a. Education priority, focus on specially abled persons b. Separate
department for disability affairs.
*
Since there is a specific mention of focus on specially abled children
under education education, is it going to be amendment to RTE? If so
are they going to have home based education under RTE?
Let's keep our ears open and be prepared for a big fight.
Thanks Regards
A. Dhana
Please forward to everybody
