The emphasis in this book shifts to the coordination of practice into schools, regional and national policies and the power and interest groups concerned with educational difficulties and disability. In the opening section the authors review the location of power in the systems; the impact of Local Management of Schools, case studies of Union policy, the National Curriculum Council and voluntary societies. They then look at one threatened element of the power structure - the local education authorities. They examine the features of local authority policy and attempt to systematise local policy. The experience of families is examined in their relationships with professionals, particularly during the preparation of Statements of Special Educational Need. This is followed by sections on services for under-fives, integrating education and the authors provide examples of changing school policies and the practices that have arisen from them; supporting the learning of all pupils in primary and secondary schools, changing the role of special schools, ensuring that girls and boys are provided with equal opportunities, writing a development plan and the experience of a teacher with a disability. They then examine policies and practices in education after school and finish with theories of integration and disability.

"Policies for Diversity in Education" is the second volume in the "Learning for All" series published by Routledge. The emphasis here is on the coordination of practice in schools, regional and national policies, and the power and interest groups concerned with educational difficulties and disabilities. Beginning with a review of the location of power in the systems--including government bodies, voluntary societies, and the unions--it moves to focus on one threatened element of that power structure, the local education authority. Using case material, "Policies for Diversity in Education," explores the experience of families in their relationships with professionals, and looks at examples of changing school policies and the practices that have arisen from them. The final sections offer an important forum for discussion on policies and practices in education after school, and on theories of integration and disability.
This reader, one of two texts developed for use in courses on special education needs, offers a new approach to learning and teaching by portraying a coherent picture of the lives of individuals and the ways in which their experience of education can be improved.

This monograph aims to stimulate thinking and increase consciousness about the cultural dimension of foreign language teaching. The author draws from the theoretical framework of Schmidt's "ABCs of Cultural Understanding and Communication" (Schmidt, 1998; Schmidt & Finkbeiner, 2006) to support and advocate for expanding awareness in relation to the influence of culture on the perception of self and other. She interrogates how language learners acquire interpretative skills to gain a deeper reflexive understanding of different cultures and how electronic communication can be effectively utilised in teaching for intercultural learning. Learning how to interrogate diverse cultural practices using multiple cultural frameworks has been shown to facilitate authentic engagement with the complexities of diverse pluralistic societies. This qualitative research study explores how culture can be taught in the foreign language classroom and school setting.
