'This is a well written and very well presented book. Aimed at teachers and other educational professionals, it is peppered with useful case studies and examples'
If you read one book as the parent or teacher of a child with additional needs or a disability make it this one!
This book would be especially useful for teachers in charge of personal, social and emotional aspects of the curriculum.
This is a detailed, intelligently written book. The use of professional language may make it inaccessible to those coming to it with no prior knowledge. On the other hand, it reminds the reader of their professional status and the pleasure of being addressed as a sentient human being. For those who want to learn more about the complex emotional nature of special educational needs and to do something about it, I highly recommend this book.
'Gail Bailey does a huge service for the emotional well-being of children with special educational needs with the publication of this book. Profoundly practical and positive, Bailey's work helps build more flourishing futures for children with special educational needs through encouraging our affirmative focus on what is working and what they can do well'-Dr. Alex Linley, Director, Centre of Applied Positive Psychology
For the specific module I am running the students require further information related to SEN policy and law which is not really coved in that much detail in this book.
