Supporting the Emotional Well-being of Children and Young People with Learning Disabilities

Supporting the Emotional Well-being of Children and Young People with Learning Disabilities is an essential and practical resource for helping children with severe and complex learning difficulties, their classmates, their teachers, and the schools they attend. The highly adaptable materials, activities and ideas presented in this book will be useful both in the classroom and in staff training to promote understanding of emotional well-being and mental health for all pupils who may need support.

Fox, Laverty, and Chowdhury cover a range of topics that engage with the school as a whole, inclusive classrooms, and the individual student. Their frameworks and practical suggestions aid teachers in supporting the well-being and mental health of students in a variety of ways, with material tailored for classrooms and individual students.

Supporting the Emotional Well-being of Children and Young People with Learning Disabilities is a comprehensive resource for teachers and management in special needs schools. It recognises current government policies and helps teachers to understand and appropriately engage with students as individuals and within classes.
