"The books in this series gather together all the vital knowledge and practical support that schools need to meet specific special needs. Information is simply explained and clearly signposted so that practitioners can quickly access what they need to know. Each book describes a specific area of special educational need and explains how it might present difficulties for pupils within the school setting.
