In response to the various continuous changes posed by contemporary life, modernization and development movement never comes to an end.

This article tackles the role of accountability in shaping an educational reform movement that is based on standards and different legislative requirements.

It also examines the effects and implications of these policies on reshaping special education towards changing practices at the levels of school districts and individual schools for the purpose of supporting students with special needs.
