Children and young people who are visibly different face
significant social and psychological challenges at school.
Educating Children with Facial Disfigurement demystifies a
difficult and delicate subject. Teachers and others working in
education can use this book to acquire a better knowledge of the
issues involved, as well as the confidence to handle sensitive
issues and foster inclusive attitudes both in and out of the
classroom. There are many causes of facial disfigurement -
birthmarks, cleft lip and palate, burns, scars and serious skin
conditions - so it is essential that all schools know about the
issues arising from visible difference. Jane Francis examines many
of these issues and demonstrates in a practical way how to deal
with: * staring, curiosity and questions, teasing, name-calling and
bullying * medical needs, special educational needs and related
issues * creating inclusive school communities * self-perception
and self-expression * career ideas, work experience and social
skills for life. With illustrative case studies, lesson ideas and
references to useful resources, this book will be of particular
relevance to teachers with responsibility for special educational
needs or pastoral care.
This text demystifies a difficult and delicate subject. It invites
teachers to help themselves by acquiring a better knowledge of the
issues involved, enabling them to achieve the confidence to handle
a variety of sensitive issues, and foster inclusive attitudes both
in and out of the classroom. Approximately one in 500 children have
a serious facial disfigurement, which means that there is at least
one such child in every school. Common causes are birthmarks, cleft
lips and palates, scarring, burns or serious skin conditions. The
author examines many of theses problems in a practical,
uncomplicated style, covering: teasing, name-calling and bullying;
career ideas and work experience; medical needs, special
educational needs and related issues; creating inclusive school
communities; self-perception and self-expression; and social skills
for life. With illustrative case studies, and reference to useful
resources, this book will be of particular relevance to teachers
with responsibility for special educational needs, pastoral care,
curriculum planning and school ethos, English, Drama, Citizenship
or PSHE.
