The first part of the study presents issues related to the diagnostic, evaluative, and support agencies for individuals with disabilities and special educational needs. It examines their terminology, structure, responsibilities, the professional specialties of the scientists who staff them, and the services they provide, as all these parameters are closely linked to the legal texts enacted for the organization of special education.
The second part highlights how the concept, status, and organization of special education in Greece differ across legal documents. It also outlines the historical periods in the development of Special Education, its aims, and the conceptual content of the term “individuals with disabilities and special educational needs.”
