During this period, only seven out of the hundereds of school boards in the UK established classes for these pupils. All seven sets of classes were different in their own ways, but two provided a sharp contrast: one displayed the quintessential features of integrated provision and the other those of separate, segregated education. For personal and ideological reasons the model of segregated provision prevailed and dominated the future system.
