Full Description
First Published in 2000. Involving Pupils in Practice provides principles and practical examples of the ways in which pupils with a wide range of needs, including emotional and behavioural difficulties and learning difficulties, can become active participants in learning. The Essex special schools and units involved in the project that provided the basis for this book, demonstrate ways in which pupils can become effective managers of their own learning within a context of wider school improvement and developing inclusion. The schools provide feedback from teachers and pupils who report significant improvements in learning, confidence, self-esteem and motivation.
