Fully cross-referenced and including suggestions for further reading with each entry, areas discussed include:

• pupil rights and empowerment
• parents and care workers

• inclusive approaches
• historical dimensions.

Providing an informative combination of practical, historical and legal terms and concepts, Special Educational Needs: The Key Concepts is a highly useful resource accessible to a broad audience.
