Engaging learners with complex learning difficulties and disabilities : a resource book for teachers and teaching assistants - London Routledge 2015
Although the concept of complex learning difficulties and disabilities (CLDD) is widely recognised, an official definition has yet to be adopted. Children and young people with CLDD include those with co-existing conditions (e.g. autism and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)) or profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD), and also children who have difficulties arising from premature birth, have survived infancy due to advanced medical interventions, have disabilities arising from parental substance and alcohol abuse, and/or have rare chromosomal disorders. This practical resource book is based on a DfE-funded research project and provides literature, tools and case study examples outlining who children and young people with CLDD are, why their engagement for learning is important, and how the Engagement for Learning Framework can be used effectively by teachers and other professionals to ensure the best possible outcomes for these children.
