Second, I introduce the policy of the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture about lifelong-education for people with handicaps. Third, I consider subjects for “transition from school to society” . On the whole, I explain that education welfare is related to education policy by the creation of new educational value, not only equality of opportunity.
