A Guide to SEND in the Early Years Summary

A Guide to SEND in the Early Years: Supporting children with special educational needs and disabilities by Kerry Murphy

'A clear, helpful and refreshingly honest book which explains SEND from top to bottom. I would highly recommend this book' - Kim Griffin, Occupational Therapist, GriffinOT, @Griffin_OT This book is designed to give every Early Years practitioner the confidence to support children with special educational needs and disabilities. It covers how to define SEND and use inclusive language, how to build and implement inclusion policies and communicate these to parents and carers, how to prepare for transition, and much more. With a whole-team approach and commitment from both practitioners and key persons as well as SENDCos, Kerry Murphy strongly believes we have the potential to create truly inclusive Early Years settings. A Guide to SEND in the Early Years dispels common myths around SEND and offers clear, concise and practical ways to translate theory into practice, overcome challenges and support children with SEND. Written by an experienced Early Years consultant and inclusion specialist, there are tried-and-tested tips, case studies, activities and reflective questions. Focussing on the importance of teamwork and sharing responsibilities, this book is perfect for any Early Years practitioner looking to improve their understanding of SEND and develop their teaching with every child in mind.
