'This is an important contribution to the field of SEN. By putting
the child into a context, the authors recognize that each child is
unique and cannot be reduced to a simple diagnosis. Highly
recommended' - SEN Magazine 'In just over 100 pages this book gives
the clearest account I have yet read of 'overlapping and
co-existing conditions'....All professionals working with children
with complex conditions will find it both interesting and
practical' - Special 'The book is written in an easily digestible
form, and provides insight into overlapping conditions as well as
advice on support to those working to meeting the needs of pupils
with these complex disorders' - SNIP 'Many have tried but few have
succeeded in bringing together the varying threads of special
educational needs into a concise and proactive format. I know,
having tried and failed myself. Here at last Dittrich and Tutt have
created a fascinating account of the current SEN world and have
succeeded, in my opinion, in demystifying and explaining the
significance of specific SEN terms, while illustrating that overlap
is more the norm than the exception. Well researched and written
with both clarity and experience, the authors stress that there
really is no such thing as a SEN child, but that some children are
in essence more interesting in their learning and behaviour style
than others.' Fintan O'Regan, Author and Consultant There are
growing numbers of children displaying the symptoms of more than
one condition or disorder, and this has led to those involved in
education needing to understand which conditions commonly overlap
or co-exist, and how to meet children's more complex needs. By
bringing together some of the latest research on how the brain
learns with what is known about identifying developmental disorders
that appear to have a common biological basis, this book covers: -
what is known about a common group of disorders, (including ADHD,
autistic spectrum disorders, dyslexia, dyscalculia and dyspraxia) -
how to recognise when a child may have more than one condition -
what teaching approaches and strategies might be most relevant
Written in a non-technical style, the book blends together
scientific knowledge from different disciplines and translates it
into practical terms for school leaders, practitioners in the field
of special educational needs and disabilities, and students
following courses in higher education.
