Blisteringly honest account of special education

Lynn Attwood has drawn on her extensive experience to write an interesting, informative and blisteringly honest account. If you remember that behind each of her explanations and very rich case studies there are vulnerable young people and their families struggling to cope in an unwelcoming educational environment, then you would be forgiven for being moved to tears on occasions.

The author carefully pitches her book to explain the language and processes for parents while, at the same time, skilfully giving professionals enough insight and information to appeal to both audiences in equal measure. She is never patronising and certainly does not skimp on her analysis of a very complex area.
