EYE SUPPLEMENT Professional Book Review: Inclusive practice

Richard Willis, visiting professor at the University of South Wales, reviews a book which provides a toolkit for practitioners to incorporate neurodiversity-affirming education and inclusive teaching into settings

This book is an excellent resource for both early years students and educators. The reader is given an abundance of valuable information, case studies and other relevant material addressing predominantly neurodiversity and inclusiveness.

The publication is steeped in progressive language, imbued with a sensitivity to and awareness of appropriate and up-to-date terminology.

Eleven chapters critically examine and present a fine account designed primarily to aid children with learning differences or disabilities. The authors present first a general background, followed by feedback coming in the case of Ann Lowe from her workplace at Doncaster Local Authority, where she is an early years inclusion officer. Stephen Kilgour is an SEND advisor and outreach teacher at Tapestry.
