All children do better at school with their parents behind them.
Parental support is even more crucial to success for a child with
Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND). Success is about
communication and teamwork! If more schools encouraged and helped
parents to work closely with teachers and specialists, to support their
child's learning, success would be almost guaranteed. The focus of the
book is on Special Educational Needs and Disabilities but the advice
applies also to children without SEND, who need additional support in
school. This book will help you understand the system, collaborate with
schools more effectively - and get the results you want! The book is
written for parents, in clear, accessible language and does not attempt
to cover all aspects of SEND. It is written mainly from my experiences
as a specialist teacher and school trainer.
