The view is put that the least restrictive environment and the most appropriate climate for intellectually handicapped adolescents and young adults can be found or created in Colleges of Technical and Further Education in New South Wales and indeed across Australia.

Research, not generally well known and therefore not acted upon, shows that despite poor initial performance, many intellectually handicapped people show substantial improvement with learning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
