The assistance provided to children with special educational needs from the psychoemotional spectrum does not correspond to the specific needs of each child, nor to
the group - from a methodological point of view;
The staff involved in the educational process do not have knowledge and skills of
communication and relationships with these children, but also skills to improve crisis
situations of children with special educational needs;
Stigmatization by children without special educational requirements and their
parents;
As a consequence, the small number of students who continue their studies in
specialized or higher institutions.
The Children's Ombudsman mentions that at present, the process of educational inclusion of
children with special educational needs is a formal one that does not correspond to international
quality standards. National authorities have not taken a holistic approach focused on the best
interests of the child, but have relied more on the economic efficiency of budget expenditures in
the budget sector. In this context, the People's Advocate for Children's Rights urges the public
authorities to review the standards stipulated by General Comment no. 16 and 19 of the UN
Committee197 on the Rights of the Child in order to form the public budget focused on the best
interests of the child.
At the end of the above, and in the context of the fact that the central and local public
authorities failed to implement the recommendations stipulated in the Reports on the observance
of children's rights in previous years, the People's Advocate for Children's Rights reviews the
relevant and current previously addressed issues:
Providing educational institutions with sanitary blocks inside educational institutions,
properly equipped with hygienic products;
Centralized provision of quality drinking water education institutions;
Ensuring the quality transport for the movement of children to the district educational
institutions;
Centralized provision of qualitative food for children in primary and secondary school;
