About way of thinking about maintenance of special support school in Yokohama-shi

　Based on the government's approach to building an inclusive education system, Yokohama aims to provide all infant elementary school studenｔ students with appropriate guidance and support to the educational needs of each child elementary school studenｔ student. In March 2018, we formulated the Yokohama Educational Vision 2030, which shows the philosophy and direction of education in Yokohama. In December 2018, we formulated the "Third Yokohama Educational Promotion Basic Plan" as an action plan that embodies the vision. In this context, we are building a variety of learning opportunities for all infant elementary school studenｔ students to learn with peace of mind, provide support to elementary school studenｔ students who need special support in general classes, education in individual support classes according to disability characteristics, enhancement of special schools, and special support education consultation systems. Special support schools are the cornerstone of these diverse learning places and form the basis for special support education in Motoichi. In fiscal 2021, the environment surrounding special needs schools has changed significantly, including the promulgation of the Standards for Establishment of Special Needs Schools, the publication of the Kanagawa Special Needs Education Promotion Guidelines, and the enforcement of the Law Concerning Support for Children with Medical Care and their families. Therefore, from such a situation, we arranged correspondence in Motoichi and devised in March, 2023 as "the way of thinking about maintenance of Yokohama-shi special support school".
