Finding innovative ways of supporting children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in this context is more important than ever, as children are being diagnosed with increasingly complex needs. Those working with children need to be aware of the fresh opportunities that are opening up and which can help every individual to maximise their full potential.
This book examines how partnership working affects children with SEND by considering:
- the diversity of additional needs;
- the role of specialist schools that have an SEN specialism;
- partnership working between mainstream and special schools;
- partnership working with groups of schools, including those that are co-located or federated;
- the growth of academies and trust schools;
- schools and other services working together;
- the work of extended schools and children′s centres;
- a wide range of other services for children, young people and families.
Filled with case studies of effective practice from real schools and services, this book is a must-have for those looking at how to work together to achieve positive outcomes for all.
