✦ Synopsis

As the integration of children with special educational needs into ordinary classrooms progresses, most special needs professionals spend an increasing amount of time in mainstream schools, working with teachers in the classroom on interventions for individual children and with head teachers and senior management teams on whole school policy. Skills in Classroom Consultation is a practical guide to the tools and techniques required to work effectively with colleagues in defining goals, allocating responsibility and formulating strategies. It shows how consultative skills can be used to solve particular educational problems and also how the consultant professional can act in a more far-reaching way as an agent of change within an institution.
