I was put off buying this by another review. However I though I had better grit my teeth and buy it for the SENCO course I am doing. How glad I did! I can honestly say this is a good book. It is essentially a collection of respected special needs experts writing interesting and short papers on their area of specialism. I find the book far easier to read than some academic tombes and most chapters are really interesting starting points to think through the many and varied areas of SEND. Ask someone who will have done the course for their opinion but don't write the book off without looking at it first!

The book is ok but I feel that it has just been written to make a few bob in light of the new legislation and is pretty heavy !
