| Abstract: | The Regulation on the Education of Persons with Disabilities, which came into effect in 2017, stipulates for the first time disabled children's right to individualized education, clarifies the subjects who determine and influence the individualized education that disabled children receive, and determines the procedures for disabled children to receive individualized education. However, compared to the subjects that determine disabled children's right to individualized education and procedural provisions as stipulated in the U.S. laws such as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1990, the Regulation on the Education of Persons with Disabilities in China has some problems, including inadequate participation of disabled children and their parents and incomplete relief settlement mechanism. China should further improve the legal provisions relating to disabled children's right to individualized education, and safeguard the right of participation and the right to relief of disabled children and their parents. |
