I used to do your job, in a special needs school, other schools are always after people..only the 'good' ones tend to stay the course! I now work for a college,where the special needs students visit with their own teaching staff.
They sample various things that we do..I also work with the 'AG boys'..Students studying Agriculture...They tend to have had a pretty hard time at school for various reasons..with them its all about trying to restore confidence( and stopping them fighting each other!!!!)Both groups are teenagers. When i worked at the special needs school I worked with just the same sort of students as you..severe learning disabilities, and PMLD...I've been bitten, spat at and had pooh wiped in my hair...I loved them!!! let me know what happens..... like me, you won't ever want to do another job..I'm hooked..and slightly mad now!
