Published by SCHOLINK INC. students. Lifelong education means building a lifelong inclusive education service system.
The main difference between inclusive education and lifelong inclusive education is that the field of inclusive education lies in ordinary schools, but lifelong inclusive is not restricted by place and includes ordinary schools, communities and even the whole society. The development of the Changning District Special Needs Student Support Service project aims to build a lifelong inclusive education system for people with special educational needs, focusing on basic education, extending preschool inclusive education and post-school inclusive education forward, taking community inclusion as the guide, and providing life-long career support services for inclusive education objects.

Participants
Basically it is a part of support service project for students with special needs. The research mainly involved 9inclusive kindergartens, 22 inclusive primary secondary schools and 3 special education schools/institution in Changning District. The support programs aims for providing support and services to all students with special needs in the district. Alone in 2019, 503students with special education needs were served.

Strategies for the Development of Support Services for Students with Special Needs
The fourth Plenary session of the 19th CPC Central Committee put forward "accelerating the development of a more open and flexible education system for everyone, suitable for everyone, and building a learning society". This means that with the gradual progress of inclusive education, all schools, educational institutions and communities need to be prepared in all directions to build a support system for "special education needs learners" throughout the age group to meet the needs of "everyone" education and development.
Based on the needs of "everyone" with special education needs and the existing resources, Changning District has formed a framework of inclusive education support service programs (see Table 1 below for details), linking professional resources through project management, and using the "help build" "classified support" "cooperative assistance" strategy to provide professional support to learners with special education needs and their parents and related personnel from the three levels of "group, class, individual" respectively. individual learners with special education needs 3.1.1 Support "Groups" with an "Assist Build" Strategy "Group" refers to learners of various types of special educational needs in a school (/institution/community). In response to the persistent problem of the lack of knowledge of learners with special education needs in general schools and communities in the region and the lack of corresponding educational and teaching skills, and the unmet educational needs of learners with special education needs, a "group" of learners with all special education needs in a school (/?institution /community) is used as a support target to integrate existing resources and assist the school (/?institution/community) in implementing inclusive education support projects. Through the "help build" strategy, we can advocate the concept of inclusion in various units/communities, shape a good culture of inclusion, and let relevant personnel learn and understand the technology and methods of education for people with special educational needs.
3.1.2 Support "Class" with Class Support Strategy "Class" refers to learners with special educational needs of the same type and with similar educational and developmental needs, who are often distributed across units/communities. Based on the problem of universality of various types of learners in many schools and other units in the region, the project of supporting a class of learners is developed separately with the strategy of "classification support".
There are two ways to classify classes: The first is classified according to the type, which can be divided into "disability class" "obstacle class" and "extraordinary (superior)". At the school age, "disability" students include students who have been accredited with the class and those who have not applied for accreditation. "Disorders" include attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, emotional behavior disorder, speech language disorder, writing disorder, dyslexia, computational disorder, autistic spectrum disorder students (including low function, high function) and so on. According to the survey, some aspects of the supernormal (gifted) student union because of lack of effective educational support and reduced to students with learning difficulties.
The outline of the medium-and long-term education reform and development plan of Shanghai (2010-2020) clearly includes supernormal students in the category of special education, and points out that "disabled and supernormal students should be developed in understanding and caring". Changning District will "extraordinary (gifted)" students into special education services.
The second is broken down by age. This will further classify the objects of education in each stage. The pre-school age can be subdivided into 0-3 years and 3-6 years old; the school age can be subdivided into primary, secondary and vocational education; and the post-school age can be subdivided into the stage of continuing education and the stage of old age education.
The key to the implementation of the "classification support" strategy is to adapt to local conditions. According to the needs and available resources of this type of student, direct support can be provided for the provision of services directly aimed at the students themselves; those who can not identify their clients start with the environment, provide indirect support and create an inclusive environment for the growth of students with special educational needs.
3.1.3 Support "Individual" with "Cooperative Aid" Strategy "Individual" refers to the individual learners who can not meet the needs of special education at the level of "group" and "class". The contradiction around the object individual is prominent, the demand is strong and each has its own characteristics, which can be described as "one person, one case". The "cooperative aid" strategy tries to change the "micro-ecosystem" of the surrounding environment of individual cases by integrating resources, and provides individualized, ecological and multidisciplinary support for individual special education needs learners.
It should be emphasized that the "cooperative assistance" strategy is based on the site, and the strategy implementation place is in the ordinary primary and secondary schools and other units and communities. In addition to the students, the assistance also includes the relevant personnel of the unit and community, as well as the families of the learners. The learner's environment and the follow-up actions of the relevant personnel and family members are important factors that determine the success or failure of the case. What the regional guidance center needs to do is to integrate the resources, build the service framework and other support work, through the auxiliary to realize the function.

Development and Implementation of Special Needs Student Support Programs for School Age
Taking the special needs students of school age as the main body, Changning District has developed and implemented three levels of inclusive education support projects to provide corresponding support for students of "disability class", "obstacle class" and "supernormal (gifted)".

Development and Implementation of Support Project at "Group" Level
In the aspect of education management, according to the principle of school voluntary, the corresponding "special education needs response mechanism" is constructed in moral education, psychology and youth insurance, and the "response mechanism scheme" (including internal and external situation analysis, construction goal formulation, special education needs students' needs analysis, rules and regulations design, response mechanism flow chart and description, work form design, personnel division network map) is designed and implemented in order to detect and respond to the special education needs of" group "early. In the aspect of curriculum teaching, we should explore the general learning design in the ordinary classroom, and explore the general learning design concept and strategy method in the ordinary classroom through the classroom teaching and research course of "three cycles and two reflections". In the area of cultural propaganda, various means such as inviting special education and medical experts to give lectures are used to actively promote the activities of "integrating educational knowledge into the campus". In the work of head teacher, the subject teaching This part of the students can be divided into "students in the class" and "not identified with the class of students with disabilities" two categories. In accordance with the relevant regulations of the class, students are provided with "no less than 30 minutes of individual tutoring per day" individualized education. At the same time, in order to form the joint forces of school, family and social education, the central group of students in the same class has been built, the system of connecting home and school with students in the same class has been established, and various activities such as rich and diverse family education guidance activities have been carried out, which has brought into full play the important role of parents and communities in the work of studying in the same class.
"Unidentified students with disabilities" is also known as "recessive students with disabilities". This group of students is often unable to receive the corresponding special education professional support without applying to attend classes because parents are unwilling to admit that their children have a disability or the school is unwilling to increase the workload of attending classes. Based on the characteristics and resource analysis of this part of the students, Changning District has developed and implemented indirect support projects for teachers, parents, including multi-disciplinary research and judgment sessions, resource teacher tour guidance, positive behavior support and other professional knowledge lectures and central groups, parents psychological salon and other projects. Through the implementation of these support projects, the seeds of inclusive education are planted in the hearts of teachers and parents, so as to create a good support environment for these "hidden students in class".

Development and Implementation of Support Project for "Disbaled Students"
This group of students includes attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, learning disorder (which can be further subdivided into dyslexia, writing disorder, computational disorder), emotional behavior disorder and other obstacle class students, this part of the students' educational needs are often ignored, unable to get professional special education support.
According to the analysis of the characteristics and resources of "class", we have inclusive the resources of pediatrics, rehabilitation institutions, therapists, social workers and other resources in major hospitals, carried out counseling, diagnosis, evaluation and intervention, carried out activities such as teacher center group, teacher training, large-scale parent training and small group parent workshops, parent salons and psychological counseling, and provided indirect or direct services.

Development and Implementation of Support Project for "Talented Students"
Special education should also include gifted students. In view of the lack or insufficiency of special education professional support for this group of students, support projects based on the physical and mental characteristics of various kinds of supernormal students are developed, including direct-oriented mathematics supernormal students thinking training courses, drama performance associations, life science associations, literary creation associations, literary and historical associations, etc., as well as We Chat series lectures, parents' workshops and so on for the parents of such students.

Development and Implementation of Support Project at "Individual" Level

Upon receiving the application for assistance in difficult cases, the Special Education Guidance Centre invites medical and special education experts to enter the school site for ecological assessment and assessment, select suitable placement methods based on the results of the study, and provide various placement support to benefit each student. Table 2 presents the status of assistance in difficult cases at the Centre.

For more than 30 years ," support "has become an important concept of international special education.
With the development of special education and the deepening of the concept of lifelong education, the education of students with intellectual disabilities after nine years of compulsory education has become an unavoidable practical problem. Due to the limitation of physical and mental development, it is difficult for special people to go to school. Although the higher education of people with visual, hearing and limb disabilities has been explored for many years, the higher education of people with intellectual disabilities is still a new topic in China. Changning District provides academic support for adult mentally retarded students through the program of high repetition and junior college classes.
The program for the rehabilitation of mentally handicapped students. In 2013, the Changning District Special Education Guidance Center, based on the existing work foundation, further translated the concept of college attendance for persons with intellectual disabilities into practice, and actively explored ways to support college attendance for persons with intellectual disabilities.

Community integration project for adults with disabilities. Since the end of 2012, the Centre has developed community projects for adults with disabilities in order to enable persons with disabilities who choose to stay at home after graduation from school to move out of their families, develop interpersonal relationships in groups, and continue their functional rehabilitation, develop hobbies and improve their quality of life. Through contacts with institutions and organizations, such as universities, vocational schools, public welfare organizations and literary and artistic units that have been in contact with each other, find suitable resources to support associations of persons with disabilities of adult age.

Through community activities, parents are actively encouraged to participate, create a co-learning environment, and promote students and parents to grow together. so as to advocate Employment support programs for adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). "Supporting a child for a lifetime" is a concept advocated and upheld by the Changning District Special Education Guidance Center. In Changning District, special vocational schools have set up an employment transfer service system for graduates with intellectual disabilities, but autism employment has been a major problem. The majority of adult autism, can only stay at home nowhere to go, bring great pressure to the family and society. To this end, the Centre has set up an employment support project for autistic adolescents. By means of community education, targeted vocational training community curriculum activities are designed, organized and implemented for ASD youth in need; internship posts are set up in the center; and resources such as special education experts, therapists, social workers, public welfare organizations and enterprises are inclusive to form an employment support system.

Support project development and implementation at "individual" level
Every student is gold. Persons with disabilities, although flawed in one way or another, also have www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/wjer untapped potential. According to the special talents of the disabled, the Changning District implements a special curriculum project to provide "individual" level support for students with special needs after school age. So far, the Changning Special Education and Guidance Center has implemented special courses for three students, namely Yuan Yongrui with writing ability, Wang Yue with singing ability, and Xiao Li with hearing impairment with recitation ability.

Construction of Transition Service Mechanism for Students with Special Needs
In view of the lack of support for the transfer of special needs students and the difficulty of adapting to the connection, the changning special education guidance center carried out the research and practice of the transfer service for students with special needs. A central group of special student transfer services has been set up, once a month, to organize seminars for teachers of special student transfer services in each school section of the region, to strengthen the convergence and cooperation of educational and rehabilitation institutions in each school section, and to improve teachers' ability to transfer titles. A pioneering Regional Special Student Transfer Service Manual has been developed to provide guidance to parents and teachers of students with special needs. The development and implementation of 37 transfer service projects in the five major phases of Home, Young, Junior, Junior, Junior and Post-Secondary, and Post-Secondary, which are divided into assessment, conference, activity and curriculum (programmes) to serve the transfer of special students at all stages. Among them, the individual medical school transfer conference project, the integration of medical education multidisciplinary resources for special children to carry out a combination of medical education evaluation, organize medical home school information exchange, form rehabilitation and education advice, in order to promote the special children's school transfer. Through the transfer conference of medical schools, parents can know their children more objectively and comprehensively, understand the educational and teaching requirements of different school stages, and guide their children to prepare for the new school stage more reasonably. The experience of education and teaching management in the school section can be shared, and the teachers in the next school section can know the special students in advance, the experience in the school section and the advice of medical and educational experts, which will help to do a good job in supporting the admission of new students. Currently, a conference has been held for 177 special students on the transfer of medical schools. transfer service has enhanced the synergy between the schools and institutions of the special education services in the region, and is an important service item for multidisciplinary cooperative teams, which makes the individualized special education service in the region coherent and promotes the career development of students.

Expanding the Functions of Special Education Schools/Centers
In mainland of China, for the insufficient of funds and special education resources, inclusive education, inclusive education poses a great challenge to ordinary schools. With the development of inclusive education, it's necessary to extend the strength of special education schools/centers to provide support services for the students with special education needs.

Focusing on the Career Development of Students with Special Education Needs
Inclusive education is by no means a nine-year compulsory education and, but covers lifetime.
Therefore, it is important to extend the length of support service, to build a career support system for students with special education needs.

Promoting the Mainstreaming to Lifelong Inclusive Education
In mainland of China, inclusive education serves mainly visual impairment, hearing impairment and intellectual disabled students. We call the placement of these disabled students into ordinary school as "mainstreaming". However, the needs of large Numbers of special-needs students have been ignored.

Acknowledgement
We sincerely thank the schools, children, teachers, parents, volunteers and specialists who participated in this study.

Conclusion
Based on the overall goal of education in the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda of the United Nations Development Summit, the Changning District Special Education Guidance Centre has developed and implemented support services for students with special needs, covering three categories of special education, including disability, disability and financial excellence, extending the length of service vertically, focusing on inclusive education at the basic education stage to both ends for life. In the follow-up practice, we will enrich the support service projects in various stages to improve the regional lifelong integration education service system.
