This third edition continues to guide students through the challenging field of special educational needs and disability. Contextualising SEND in relation to historical, ideological and political developments, this book offers essential support to students as they develop a critical and up-to-date understanding of the practical challenges and opportunities concerning inclusion.
New edition features include:
• Up-to-date legislation, such as the SEND Code of Practice
• Material surrounding social, emotional and mental Heath
• New practical case studies, reflections and activities
• Revised chapter summaries
• More on the future of SEND
This is a somewhat generalist publication providing an overview of special education and so is useful for the PG Cert SENCO. However, it could also be used to inform undergraduate SEN courses.
A key piece of reading for anyone who is linking the SEND code of practice in to academic work but also for those practitioners who are within the grass roots of these processes
Not suited to course (PcET). It would be a good source for Undergraduate Education degrees.
This well written work provides a good introduction and background to the main debates that have influenced Special Educational Needs.
This is an excellent book about SEND which is up to date and informative.
This book is a particularly good resource for students who need to analyse the issues linked to SEN. It has useful reflective activities and the inclusion of more recent references has enhanced this edition.
A must read for all interested in Education and Social justice. Very clearly written with case studies and other activities. Very good for teachers and students.
