Abstract

The article treats spatial analysis distribution of activities within special education of vision impaired children, pupils and students in the Czech Republic. It response to the research questions: What are territorial differences in content and volume of special education of vision impaired people? Are there any regional disparities? The authors applied several scientific methods – a standardized form for recording of particular contact the teacher with vision impaired person in Special Education Centre, database design, spatial analysis and map compiling. The study confirms a significant increase of disability in higher age and dominant role of the family in the care for a person with vision impaired people. The research confirmed the dominant role of regions as special needs centres authorities. Based on a unique survey the study quantified special needs centres activity.
