Icecubbie, I work at a school. And itÂ’s all very mixed. At our particular school we only have one little boy who is physically disabled. He has very bad eyesight and is partially deaf. He has a Teaching Assistant on a one to one basis but apart from that he is included in everything from the skipathon's to swimming.
All the special needs children (whether its Autistic or learning problem, behaviour problem etc) depending on their status whether they have been assess to need one to one and have a statement of special needs. Most of the teaching assistants take small groups of children out of the classroom at various times during the day.
In Dorset/Hampshire there are "Special Schools" but these are mainly for children could not handle mainstream schools.
