Contemporary Issues in Special Educational Needs: Considering the Whole Child
Autor David Armstrong, Garry Squiresen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 mai 2012
The book begins with an historical overview of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities and a critical guide to current policy. The contributors then expertly explore and summarise many of the fascinating topics which arise in practice and scholarly research in this area, including:
- Ethical and practical implications of labelling children and young people with forms of special educational needs or disability
- The role of special schools, particularly in light of enduring debates about inclusion/exclusion
- What increased student participation, student voice and other facets of a democratic classroom mean for students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
- The contributions psychology can make to developing and enriching educational practice
- Understanding ‘behaviour’ in relation to children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
“This book presents a stimulating and up-to-date overview of the context of education in SEN and suggests how educators can address special needs most effectively by keeping in mind an image of the development of the whole child.”
Tony Cline, Educational Psychology Group, University College London, UK.

“This book provides a welcome overview and commentary on current complex issues and problems affecting all those with an interest in children and young people with special educational needs. This book is an excellent compilation of relevant contemporary pieces thoughtfully woven together by highly skilled, well-placed editors.”
Jane Leadbetter, University of Birmingham, UK.
