Books in the Special Needs in Ordinary Schools S. series

How can ordinary schools cope with pupils with special needs? What must they do to move beyond the rhetoric of the integration to effective practical action? Seamus Hegarty aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the key issues in the UK.

The premiss of this work is that all pupils, including those with special needs, can learn mathematics effectively within the mainstream curriculum. Drawing on case studies, it shows the implications of inclusive education for classroom teaching, whole school approaches and teacher development.

Designed for teachers wanting to know what to do to help pupils with spelling difficulties, this book combines practical advice with theory, research and accounts of the author's own experience. The author looks at how spelling skills develop in both young children and older pupils.
