Special Educational Needs and the Law

Special Education Needs and the Law explains, in a clear and practical style, every aspect of UK law and practice relating to special educational needs provision. The new edition of the popular title has been extensively revised and expanded to include detailed coverage of the new regime including new chapters on disability discrimination following the extension of the UK Tribunal's jurisdiction, the codes of practice underpinning it, and all relevant case-law. In addition, there is expanded coverage to include the systems now in operation in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Special Educational Needs and the Law provides all this information in one handy volume, together with useful appendices including tribunal statistics.
