This book begins by exploring what is meant by SEND in primary schools
and goes on to cover everything trainees and teachers need to know about
their statutory responsibilities in school. It then examines the range
of needs they will encounter in primary schools with plenty of practical
advice along the way. This third edition has been fully restructured and
updated to include a new section on the key theories and theorists
relating to SEND. Also new to this edition is a chapter focusing on the
role of the SENCO in primary school. Finally, the book includes more
practical support with coverage of current legislation and the Code of
Conduct as well as checklists and information about useful resources and
outside agencies.
