Education for the Few?

Submitted by jstiles on November 14, 2006 - 3:40pm.

One of the criticisms of private international schools is that they are often very discriminatory in their acceptance policies. In particular, students with special needs, either cognitive or physical, have been barred from entering certain international schools.

The question: "Do international schools have a moral obligation to accept differently-abled students?"

We welcome your input on this issue. Please sound off!
