What are the qualities of a Mainstream school that a Developmental Pediatrician recommends for my Child with Special Needs:

It took us a lot of sleepless nights thinking about the changes and the major adjustments that we might undergo when my child's Developmental Pediatrician advised us to transfer my child with special needs from Special Education to Mainstream School.  My son was diagnosed with GDD (Global Developmental Delay) as early as 1 year old. We underwent Occupational and Speech Therapy sessions since he was only 18 months. At four years old, I started sending him to SpEd (Special Education) and have his regular assessment with his DevPed (Developmental Pediatrician) every six months while still attending his Occupational and Speech Therapy.
