Special Needs Teachers Missing From Special Education In Hungary
The number of students with special educational needs is growing faster than the number of teachers trained to work with such students, daily Népszava said.

Human Resources Ministry figures for the 2019/2020 academic year showed 9,700 special needs teachers employed in public education, representing a drop from slightly over 10,000 in 2018, the paper said.

At the same time, 2,300 more children were diagnosed with special needs this year than last, with their number reaching 93,800.
