Description
The SEN Code of Practice highlights that some young children have a medical condition. Although most of them won't have a SEN, it is still important that practitioners are aware of the implications of certain conditions and of the best ways they can offer support. Well written and engaging, this book will prove invaluable reading for everyone involved in early years' care and education.
