A Roma Special School is a school for Roma children. They are often associated with schools for mentally or physically disabled children, and are generally considered to put Roma students at a disadvantage by delivering lower-quality education than traditional schools.[1][2]:83 Special Schools are sometimes preferred by Roma parents because children are better-protected from discrimination from non-Roma students.[2]:84
