First Published in 1998. Supporting Children with Communication Problems: sharing the workload is, therefore, for practising teachers and therapists who have begun to work together and wish to know more about the process, as well as for those professionals who may be considering embarking on such work but need to consider the 'pros and cons' of working in this way. The book is also for student teachers and speech and language therapy students.

This book is about the ways in which teachers and speech language therapists work together with children with communication problems in mainstream schools, special units and special schools. It explores issues that have influenced these working relationships and why children with communication problems may benefit from a professional partnership of teacher and therapist. In addition, it explores information brought together for the first time about current practice in educational settings with reference to current literature, both from this country and abroad, as well as strategies for the development of working relationships.
