The current study examined the missing perspective in the literature, of the special education team in the paradigm of partnership with parents. The study involved special education professionals from three schools from many sectors. All the selected schools belong to the complex special education system that includes motor disabilities, cognitive disabilities, or both. The current study examined the protective factors and risk factors that may influence this partnership. The findings of the study revealed that the school climate is related to stress measures and professional self-image. It was also found that the type of school and school climate are related to the concept of partnership with parents. In addition, personal factors were found to be directly related to stress measures and the perception of partnership and even moderated the relationship between stress and the perception of partnership.
