Special Educational Needs in the Early Years Reviews

This is a really good introduction for students new to SEND. The case studies and reflections are engaging, linking theory to practice and the real world.

-- Dr Austin Griffiths

Written in an accessible format for foundation and undergraduate courses. This book is rich with case study experiences surrounding the complexities of inclusion. It both challenges and informs.
