May have to resign my job due to my childrens learning disabilities

OK I may have to resign my job to look after my children`s special needs. They (twin boys) have been diagnosed with learning difficulties, dyslexia? I am a trained teacher and one option would be to go down the home schooling route. Does anyone have any information with regards to unemployment benefit and or other benefits etc.

The International school that they are presently in, may not be able to support their learning difficulties. We are looking at all options, seeing what funding is available from the Kanton, since they need support in the English Language. How would a Kanton handle this, since English is our native language and the children practically speak no German. We have been told that putting them into a German speaking environment, ie Swiss school may harm the boys progress further.

Are there any English speaking dyslexia help groups in Switzerland?
