Special education for children and young people with special educational or support needs is also part of school support measures. Support is provided separately in a special school or in a specific setting (hospital, clinic, etc.). The head of the education authority decides on allocation to a special school on the basis of an assessment by the school psychology service. The only recognized special school in Liechtenstein is the special educational day school of the Heilpädagogisches Zentrum in Schaan (hpz). The special educational day school cares for children and young people whose special educational needs can no longer be adequately met (temporarily) with the special educational resources of the regular school. This may be the case with pronounced language difficulties or significant cognitive problems. Special schools in Switzerland and Austria also offer appropriate special or socio-educational support for children with significant mobility, behavioral or sensory impairments.
