Description
The go-to guide for supporting and understanding young people's special educational needs.
SEND Strategies for the Secondary Years is the essential guide for understanding and supporting young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), whether they have a formal diagnosis or not. Written by SEND expert and acclaimed podcaster, Georgina Durrant, this book is split into seven key areas, each focusing on a different area of need with relevant accompanying support, such as numeracy skills, emotional regulation and sensory processing differences. It takes a neuro-affirmative approach to empowering autistic students, as well as those with PDA, ADHD, dyslexia, DCD, dyscalculia, sensory processing differences, SLCN and more.
With practical, easy-to-implement techniques, every chapter provides actionable solutions to enhance learning outcomes and foster an environment where students don't merely cope, but thrive. Designed for both teachers and parents, this resource ensures every young person with SEND receives the support they need to succeed in the classroom and beyond.
