Description - Understanding Special Educational Needs by Michael Farrell

Teachers need to be fully equipped to respond to diversity in classrooms. The Professional Standards for Qualified Teacher Status and Induction Standards are now the driving force behind initial teacher education, and students will need to demonstrate their competence against these, and in particular, their understanding of Special Educational Needs in inclusive classrooms. Each chapter of this volume explores an important topic within SEN and directly relates it to the competencies, making it a useful course companion. Chapters on topics relating to the code of practice, school policy, literacy and numeracy, ICT, emotional and behavioural difficulties and dealing with parents all follow a similar template, which includes: a commentary on the relevant professional standards; contextualizing of the standards; and what teachers can do to promote effective practice. Detailed referencing aim to lead students to pursue more detailed individual texts, which address many of the issues in greater depth.
