Students with special needs started to receive educational services in Jordan in the late 1960s. This paper shows a glance at the education systems in Jordan with its two branches, which are the general and special education. The history of Jordan and its demography were highlighted in order to put children's education in Jordan within its proper framework. Additionally, the education system, both public and private sectors, in Jordan was revised in detail. The most important issues relevant to current procedures and challenges facing the services provided to students with disabilities have been explored. Finally, propositions were presented in order to develop the present situation in the future.
