Education for All Handicapped Children Act
The Education for All Handicapped Children Act was a law made in the United States back in 1975. It made sure that all children with disabilities should be given the chance to attend school and get the same education as others. Before this law, some schools did not allow children with disabilities to attend school or get a proper education. This made it harder, and sometimes impossible, for those children to learn and succeed in life.
The law required schools to give children with disabilities an Individualized Education Plan or IEP. This plan was made specifically for each child to help them learn in a way that suited their needs. It could include things like special classes, equipment, and therapy sessions that would help them learn and be successful in school.
This law makes sure that every child has an equal opportunity to learn and grow, no matter what their differences may be.
