Every child deserves to feel understood, valued, and included, yet standing in front of a class of learners, each with their own strengths and needs, can feel overwhelming for an Early Career Teacher (ECT).

Each chapter focuses on a key area of SEND support and teaching, providing answers to common questions and expert advice on best practices. From adapting your teaching and classroom environment to working effectively with families, teaching assistants, and external professionals, it provides actionable advice to help you navigate the complexities of SEND support. Contributors bring a powerful mix of professional expertise and lived experience, while guiding reflection questions from the editor encourage you to pause, consider your approach, and identify steps to strengthen your SEND practice.
Supporting learners with special educational needs is one of the most rewarding and important aspects of education. It isn’t about perfection – it’s about progress, curiosity and care. This book will equip you with the knowledge and confidence to support every child and is essential reading for ECTs and a valuable staffroom resource for all educators.

Recenzii
“As Head of Learning Support and SENCO, I believe Questions on SEND is an essential resource for early career SENCOs and teachers seeking to deepen their understanding of special educational needs. Georgina Durrant’s expert panel provides clear, practical answers to the real questions educators ask, from adapting teaching and creating inclusive classrooms to working effectively with families and support staff. Its accessible, dip-in-and-out format makes it both reassuring and actionable - a must-have guide for building confidence and fostering inclusive practice in every setting.” – Charlotte Bird, Head of Learning Support, Devonshire House School
“As I was reading this book, I could see myself having a conversation with a colleague who really gets SEND. It offers practical and thoughtful guidance that can be used every day in the classroom. There is a good balance between the individual needs of the learners and how to maintain high expectations. Throughout the book, I could see the genuine experience and empathy of the author and the contributors. This is a resource that will encourage honest reflection and small, meaningful steps towards truly inclusive practice.” – Eva Freytas Sanchez, Strategic SEND Leader and Autism Specialist
“This book grabbed me from the first paragraph with the statement, ‘Every child and young person deserves to feel understood, valued, and included within the classroom’. I was further drawn in by contributions drawn from varied experiences and knowledge bases. I love the format of the book! It is both unusual and effective, with questions answered by different writers. The reader can dip in, knowing that they don’t need to set aside long periods of time. I recommend this book to educators seeking to develop their own knowledge base and leaders supporting the professional learning of others.” - Dr Jess Mahdavi-Gladwell, CPsychol AFBPsS CTeach FCCT CMgr FHEA
