Abstract

The ear, as an organ of hearing, can be damaged or have problems during intrauterine development. As a result, hearing is impaired, which negatively affects speech, mental development and the communication process in children. Schoolchildren with special educational needs (SEN), suffer not only from general speech disorders and phonetic speech disorders but are mainly related to the damage of the higher cortical centers of the brain responsible for speech, as well as to hearing problems. The latter can be alleviated by using hearing aids at the early stage or by performing a cochlear implantation process. However, a question suggests itself. Do families that have children with such problems cope with their social and financial problems? An issue requiring public attention and care and is directly related to the improvement of education quality.
