These special education teachers are responsible for planning, implementation and evaluation of the support given according to the child’s needs. The work is carried out in cooperation with the guardians, ECEC and preschool personnel, and a multidisciplinary expert network.
In Sipoo, there are two groups in which the amount of children is smaller and the personnel has more comprehensive pedagogical skills. In addition to these smaller groups, ECEC services also employ a certain amount of group assistants who can be placed in groups with more than one child in need of support.
