HELPING YOU TO HELP YOUR CHILD - WRITTEN BY THE FOUNDER OF THE SPECIAL NEEDS JUNGLE WEBSITE
Realising your child has special educational needs is stressful for any parent. Getting them the help they require can be a long, drawn-out, frustrating and expensive process. All too often, parents are unprepared for the complicated, emotional and often adversarial journey ahead.
This unique book written by Tania Tirraoro, is aimed at helping parents understand what they need to do in a step-by-step approach that includes extracts from successful applications for SEN statutory assessments and school placements. Although it is aimed at parents in the UK, anyone who needs to prepare a case to get support for their child will be helped by this book.
