The Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator's Handbook - A Guide for Implementing the Code of Practice (Paperback)

In September 1994, the Code of Practice on the Identification and Assessment of Special Educational Needs was enforced, and with it a major increase in the expectations placed on teachers in mainstream schools, in particular on the SEN co-ordinators. This handbook dicusses the implications this will have for schools and gives practical guidance on how to implement the code effectively. Throughout, the book provides: further information, expanding upon that given in the Code; examples; ideas for dealing with SEN in schools; checklists; and proformas for photocopying and direct use in schools. The book begins by explaining and expanding on the Code of Practice, setting it in the context of recent developments including the Education Reform Act and OFSTED criteria for evaluating policy and provision for children in SEN. It then goes on to provide guidelines for implementing the Code of Practice at each of the five stages which it specifies and discusses issues which are raised by this. Specific chapters cover: identifying and assessing SEN within the school; liaison with outside specialists; statementing; and annual reviews.
