Special Needs in Ordinary Classroom: From Staff Support to Staff Development

This third edition has been revised and updated in the light of the 194 Code of Practice. It aims to meet the multiplying demands from teachers for suppport through school-based staff development initiatives that enhance teachers' abilities to meet pupils' emotional, behavioural and learning needs through curriculum content and delivery, teacher-pupil and classroom relationships and parent involvement. The 1994 Code of Practice now postulates such staff development and support through each school's Special Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO), as an integral part of a school's SEN policy. This third edition aims to help them further in their best endeavours.
