Special Educational Needs and Disability offers a comprehensive and coherent overview of the historical development of the field of special educational, or additional learning or support needs and disability. It delves into significant past and current social and political contexts in which this evolution has occurred, as well as the changes in the law over time. The book provides a broad coverage of a diverse range of needs and disabilities, offering valuable insights into effective identification and support for young individuals who experience such challenges.

In its revised fourth edition, this text encompasses recent legislative changes across the United Kingdom. It also includes an expanded discussion of key areas such as social, emotional, and mental health, a new chapter on literacy difficulties, and a fair, balanced, and open discussion of up-to-date evidence that sheds light on the impact of factors associated with marketization on young people who face barriers to their learning, including competition between schools and the academies program.

Special Educational Needs and Disability serves as an indispensable resource for trainee and practicing teachers, members of governing boards in schools and colleges, policymakers, and all individuals who work directly with learners and their families. By providing a thorough understanding of the historical, social, and legal aspects of special educational needs and disability, this book equips professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively support and empower individuals with diverse learning requirements.
