Useful, concise, current and informative; this book is invaluable for both new and experienced SENCOs. Covering the vast legal, leadership and knowledge based areas needed for being a SENCO, this book includes many up-to-date links with relevant reflective tasks and case studies to help assess and improve own practice

This is a very comprehensive publication with pretty much all of the requisite areas for the NASENCO Award covered in an accessible, yet informed, way.

This book has very useful resources that are clearly linked to practice. The appendices and information for students to carry out their own research is particularly relevant for students who are studying on childhood studies degrees.

This book is so clear and concise and tells a new or 'would be' SENCO exactly what they need to know. It is also an essential tool for all teaching staff and some support staff as they are able to keep themselves fully informed about what the law expects of them with regards to SEND but also in relation to how to approach with conditions and ensure inclusive educational practice and opportunities. An excellent book!
