[01] Pupils at special education schools to get PCs
Education Minister Marietta Yiannakou said on Saturday that pupils at
special education schools would each have the use of a personal
computer in order to widen their studies.
"The ministry is also funding programmes for the improvement of
conditions of entry into the education system for people in special
categories," Yiannakou told a conference on European policy to upgrade
the quality of life for people with special needs.
The conference was arranged by the European parliament's socialist
group and the main opposition Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK).
Opening the session, PASOK eurodeputy Evangelia Tzambaxi, said that as
a person with a handicap, she felt that the key to assistance was the
provision of autonomy.
