The inclusion of students with special educational needs (SEN) in regular schools aims at reducing disparities related to their placement in special education schools and their socio-cultural background. Based on data from the IQB-Ländervergleich Primarstufe 2011, a national assessment in German primary schools, we examined the effects of classroom composition and school type on SEN students’ achievement in mathematics and German reading comprehension in regular schools (N = 658) and special education schools (N = 413). Significant relationships between average cognitive abilities at the class level and achievement at the individual level indicate that SEN students benefit from attending classrooms with a higher ability level. Regular schools might provide better learning opportunities for SEN students than special education schools.
