The word "provision" or "provisions" show up frequently, but I'm not sure, what it means. Dictionaries won't help, the translations make no sense in this context.
Could anyone describe the meaning in other words? The book is about special educational needs, special needs education, the rights of disabled persons or persons with learning difficulties, and childcare for disabled.
Here are some quotations from the book:
"The government has launched a range of new initiatives, all designed to improve the quality of provision, support families in bringing up their children and develop a more coordinated approach to planning and provision at local level."
"The expansion of provision for preschool children with exceptional needs must be must be seen in the wider context of services for all young children"
"All children, regardless of backround, are to be offered increased provision at local level"
"More detailed information is required on the range of provision and services that have been and will be made available to children with special needs"
Thank you for explaining it to me. (or translating, if you know the word in finnish...
