Teaching of special educational needs

This book is designed to up-skill every Early Years practitioner to feel ready and confident to support children with special educational needs and disabilities. With a whole-team approach and commitment from both practitioners and key persons as well as SENDCos, Kerry strongly believes we have the potential to create truly inclusive Early Years settings.

Reviews for A Guide to SEND in the Early Years: Supporting children with special educational needs and disabilities

This book offers a uniquely honest, actually useful, critical yet relatable toolkit for Early Years educators who remain committed to taking care of and educating all babies and young children in our current educational system. -- David Cahn * Early Years teacher and carer, and author, @DavidN_Cahn * A clear, helpful and refreshingly honest book which explains SEND from top to bottom. I would highly recommend this book to anyone trying to navigate SEND in the UK. -- Kim Griffin * Occupational Therapist, GriffinOT, @Griffin_OT * Kerry has skilfully collated case studies and a plethora of contributions, from parents, Early Years educators and specialists promoting advocacy, agency and activism. This book gives a view of supporting SEND not only from a policy-driven perspective but from a trained, experienced and neurodiverse one.' -- Jamel Carly Campbell * Early Years SEND specialist and Men in the Early Years Ambassador, @JamelCarly *
