A Different View of Curriculum and Assessment links a theoretical
pedagogical model with a sympathetic practical model of curriculum
and assessment difference for those with PMLD, CLD and SLD. Split
into two parts, this accessible resource combines theoretical
explanations with first-hand accounts of how this works in
educational establishments, through the analysis of evidence-based
practice carried out in a number of English special (specialist)
schools. The expert authors challenge the notion that a national,
or common core standards, curriculum, however expertly
differentiated, is fit-for-purpose for the PMLD, CLD and SLD
populations in any country. A Different View offers cogent and
reasoned arguments for considering that irrespective of age, such
learners learn differently to their neuro-typical, conventionally
developing peers. If they learn differently, this book shows how we
should be teaching them differently. Reflecting the centrality of
process over product, this book will clearly explain how each
individual learner might be enabled and facilitated to become the
best they can be and do the best they can do, in order to fully
realise their potential as equal and independent citizens.

Successor to Henry Irving's long-established guide to the nooks and
crannies of this fascinating corner of the east coast of England,
this new title has extended coverage under the authorship of
retired harbourmaster and local cruising sailor Peter Harvey. Some
choose to bypass this beautiful section of coast and its
extraordinary natural habitats, but this cruising guide gives
inspiration to anyone who wishes to explore the many shallow creeks
and deeper historic harbours of Norfolk, Lincolnshire and the
Humber. With thoroughly updated text and plans and new photographs
throughout, The Wash and Humber remains an essential companion to
this interesting and rewarding section of our coastline.
Fully updated, and with new sections on behaviourism, attachment
disorders, neuro-scientific developments and working with
dis-engaged learners, this second edition of Turning the Tables
contains real-life case studies, strategies for identification and
handy hints and tips throughout. It is the authoritative guide to
tackling challenging behaviour and working effectively with
children, young people and adults with severe learning difficulties
(SLD), profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD) and those
on the autistic spectrum with a dual ASD and learning difficulties
diagnosis. With a unique approach, the author stresses the need to
diagnose not only the correct difficulty but the degree of learning
difficulty for a lasting resolution, as well as tackling common
behavioural problems such as attention needing and task avoidance.
Chapters are split into three specific areas, SLD, PMLD and
ASD/SLD, covering: the 'Magnificent Seven' fundamental principles
of challenging behaviour strategies for correct identification of
the main area of learning difficulty improving teaching methods and
strategies to resolve challenging behaviour, including handy hints
and tips when things don't go to plan extensive use of real case
studies to illustrate strategies for resolution guidance on writing
your own Behaviour Support Plan. This is a practical and
authoritative guide to dealing with the myriad of challenging
behaviours that constantly puzzle practitioners. It is an essential
read for all professionals, parents and carers working with
children, young people and adults with SLD, SLD/ASD and PMLD.
Inclusion is Dead is a provocative polemic against the widely held
notion that inclusion for all children and young people with SEN is
both possible and desirable. For those with severe learning
difficulties (SLD) and profound and multiple learning difficulties
(PMLD), the authors argue, it is neither. Imray and Colley assert
that the dominance of inclusion has meant that there has been no
serious attempt to look at the educational difficulties faced by
learners with PMLD and SLD. As a vision of egalitarianism and
equality for all, they say, inclusion is dead. The authors
controversially believe that unless education changes, it will
remain as a disabling institution that does the exact opposite of
its intention. The book presents the argument that theorists of
inclusion have failed to provide practical solutions on how
inclusion can be achieved when SLD and PMLD learners are involved,
as well as discussing the drawbacks of the 'inclusion for all
argument'. With up-to-date references throughout, Inclusion is Dead
will be an insightful read for teachers and SENCO trainers, as well
as postgraduates and undergraduates studying courses on politics,
philosophy and society.
Curricula for Teaching Children and Young People with Severe or
Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties offers a range of
compelling arguments for a distinct and separate pedagogical
approach to the learning needs of the most educationally
challenging pupils. This book, written in accessible, common sense
and non-academic language, provides an easy-to-follow alternative
curriculum specifically designed to enhance and enrich the learning
of children with profound and multiple learning difficulties.
Chapter by chapter, guidelines and support are offered in key
curriculum areas, some of which include: Cognition Language,
Literacy and Communication Mathematical Physical Sensory Creative
Care Play Problem solving. This highly practical resource is
essential reading for any educational professional, parents, school
governors, teachers, teaching assistants, therapists and indeed
anyone involved with maximising the educational opportunities of
those with profound learning difficulties.
