Someone added a reference for one of the claims today. Unfortunately, the ref was right back to this article, as the website in question copied the entire Misplaced Pages article on this subject and pretended that they wrote it! We need independent references from ]. ] (]) 00:09, 1 May 2008 (UTC) |

Social promotion is an education policy for special needs students. General education students would meet standards. It's the special needs that don't. That's why they can be promoted. What kind of references do they want? --] (]) 01:20, 26 July 2008 (UTC) |

:No, you've got it entirely wrong. Social promotion is what you do to a ''non''disabled student who didn't happen to pass classes this year for some reason ''other than a disability'' -- like moving repeatedly during a school year, being unable to focus in class because of hunger or family problems, or something like that. So you have a general ed student who did not meet the general curriculum requirements, and you have to make a choice between flunking a perfectly capable student (who just happened to have a bad year), or giving the student a free promotion just so he/she can stay with friends and same-age peers. |

:A special ed student almost never qualifies for social promotion because their promotion depends ''entirely'' on their individualized plan, not on the usual rules. ] (]) 06:00, 26 July 2008 (UTC) |

that actually makes sense. its a real shame that general education students don't know how to advocate. they should learn how parents of special needs children do it. Think about it...if they told the school that they needed help during the year...the whole social promotion or grade retention would be useless...they got their help during the year not at the end of the year..these children seriously should get help...if the family ain't feeding them, that would be endangering the welfare of a child...it's about time that people do something about this serious problem.--] (]) 17:54, 27 July 2008 (UTC) |

What kind of image could we possibly have here? It's not like you can put up a picture of two kids, and say, "This one passed his classes, and that one flunked the classes but got sent to the next grade anyway." I'm inclined to remove the request for the photo unless a specific idea is listed here. ] (]) 07:40, 24 August 2008 (UTC) |
