First Published in 1999. This book is about the use of a specific collaborative problem-solving approach as part of a Continuing Professional Development policy. Collaborative staff development programmes - now envisaged in a DofE (1998) Programme of Action - can assist teachers in responding more appropriately, as an integral part of their daily professional task, to the learning needs of pupils with emotional and behavioural problems.
Containing revised and updated material from the author's "Special Needs in Ordinary Classrooms", third edition, this text emphasises how emotional and social factors affect all children's learning, and the importance of addressing them to enhance both children and teacher performance.
