Trump moves special education out of Education Department

President Donald Trump’s administration is further dismantling the Department of Education, moving oversight of special education and civil rights to other agencies. The Department of Justice will take on enforcement of civil rights in education, while the Department of Health and Human Services will oversee special education. Trump’s Republican administration made the announcement on Tuesday. The Department of Justice also will take over work protecting student privacy and will provide some training and advisory help to schools. Trump campaigned on shutting down the Education Department and moving education “back to the states,” but only Congress can close the department.
