In this episode of our Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Podcast, we switch things round and welcome host Georgina Durrant on the show as a guest for the first time.
Our guest host is Emily Powel and she interviews Georgina about her latest book 'SEND Strategies for the Primary Years' published by Bloomsbury. With as many as 13% of children in schools in England receiving some form of SEN support, and waiting times of up to 3-5 years for a child to receive a formal diagnosis, Georgina explains that there is a critical need for strategies teachers can use in the classroom and parents can use at home now. SEND Strategies for the Primary Years aims to give teachers (and parents!) practical strategies that they can put in place while they wait for diagnoses, assessment or support. The strategies are practical, easy to implement and resource. Relevant to children who may be impacted by a range of SEND including autism, PDA, ADHD, dyslexia, DCD, dyscalculia, sensory processing differences, speech, language and communication needs and more.
