For the parents this is a time of great anxiety. What does it mean? How can I help? What should the school be doing about it? Is moving schools the answer? Where can I get help and advice?This new guide from the well-established "Good Schools Guide" team provides the answers.

It lists the many sources of information and advice that parents might turn to; how to navigate the system, what makes a good school for a child with SEN; and, how to screen out those with their head in the sand. All sorts of people involved with children with SEN have written sections on their own experiences parents, teachers, professionals and the children themselves.
