关于此电子书

Curricula for Teaching Children and Young People with Severe or Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties offers a range of compelling arguments for a distinct and separate pedagogical approach to the learning needs of the most educationally challenging pupils. This book, written in accessible, common sense and non-academic language, provides an easy-to-follow alternative curriculum specifically designed to enhance and enrich the learning of children with profound and multiple learning difficulties. Chapter by chapter, guidelines and support are offered in key curriculum areas, some of which include:

Cognition
Language, Literacy and Communication
Mathematical
Physical
Sensory
Creative
Care
Play
Problem solving.

This highly practical resource is essential reading for any educational professional, parents, school governors, teachers, teaching assistants, therapists and indeed anyone involved with maximising the educational opportunities of those with profound learning difficulties.

作者简介

Peter Imray, now a freelance trainer and advisor, has been a teacher of children, young people and adults with special educational needs since 1986, mostly at The Bridge School in Islington, North London. He was part of the SCAA working party that published its findings on Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties and the National Curriculum in 1996 and has been active in the continued development of learning difficulties pedagogy and curricula since then. His first book, Turning the Tables on Challenging Behaviour, was published by Routledge in 2008.

Viv Hinchcliffe has held an interest in SLD and PMLD curriculum since his involvement on In Search of a Curriculum, published by Rectory Paddock School in 1983, and this has continued unabated. He has published widely on issues as varied as language and communication, self-advocacy, drama and leadership, is a regular speaker at conferences and has been a member of a number of DfE and DoH committees. Viv has recently taken up the post of Head of Drumbeat School and ASD Service, the new flagship specialist ASD School of the London Borough of Lewisham.
