In order to achieve the best outcomes for all children and young
people, schools must work in partnership with students, parents,
other professionals and the wider community. In this changing
landscape of education, the notion of the traditional school is
fast disappearing. This book looks at what is possible in this
exciting new world, and how some teachers and other professionals
are putting into practice the best principles of multi-agency
working. Finding innovative ways of supporting children and young
people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in
this context is more important than ever, as children are being
diagnosed with increasingly complex needs. Those working with
children need to be aware of the fresh opportunities that are
opening up and which can help every individual to maximise their
full potential. This book examines how partnership working affects
children with SEND by considering: - the diversity of additional
needs; - the role of specialist schools that have an SEN
specialism; - partnership working between mainstream and special
schools; - partnership working with groups of schools, including
those that are co-located or federated; - the growth of academies
and trust schools; - schools and other services working together; -
the work of extended schools and children's centres; - a wide range
of other services for children, young people and families. Filled
with case studies of effective practice from real schools and
services, this book is a must-have for those looking at how to work
together to achieve positive outcomes for all. Rona Tutt OBE is a
Past President of the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT)
and works as a consultant, writer and researcher on all matters
relating to education in general, and special educational needs and
disabilities in particular.

leadership is changing. By looking at what attracts teachers to
leadership roles, and how they use their power, this book examines

characteristics of innovative school leaders, and reflect on how
these people work. An appetite for challenge, a desire for a sense

development and an ability to flex their style of leadership all
emerge as core factors in their success. Topics covered include: -
the changing role of school leaders - leading inclusive
environments - the power of innovative leadership - identifying the
challenges ahead The perfect read for anyone wanting to make a

'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.
