This article describes an attempt to establish the extent and adequacy of medical and paramedical involvement (particularly that of occupational therapy) with disabled children in mainstream education. Eight teachers and three occupational therapists were invited to voice their opinions. The results indicated that this service was considered to be totally inadequate.Keywords
