The SENCO Handbook by Elizabeth Cowne
Bringing advice up to date with the Disability Discrimination Act Code of Practice for Schools (2002) and The Revised Code of Practice (2001), this fourth edition is useful reading for all SENCOs across early years, primary, secondary and FE settings. Elizabeth Cowne offers clear and practical guidance to SENCOs so that they can meet the demands made on them by the National Curriculum and the latest legislation. Prioritising their roles and responsibilities and developing a whole-school approach to meeting special educational needs within an inclusive framework has become an important part of school policy and development, and one in which SENCOs have a key role to play. Topics include: roles and responsibilities for schools in the light of the Revised Code of Practice (2001) and the Disability Discrimination Act Code of Practice for Schools (2002); planning IEPs within School Action and School Action Plus stages of the new graduated response; working in partner ship with parents and pupils; strategies for planning an inclusive curriculum for pupils with all levels of the National curriculum including the P levels; managing effective support systems; working with multi-professional networks; and a photocopiable activity pack for staff development. This fully updated fourth edition aims at supporting all those developing policies and practice within a whole-school approach to meeting special educational needs. Previous editions have proved to be an invaluable resource for all those involved in SEN coordination.
