Reviews for Supporting Children with Cerebral Palsy

It is a clear, quite simple guide about cerebral palsy. It is clearly set out - simple to pick up and extract information quickly. There are some sections which appear to be pitched at different levels and cover issues that should be well understood by those in education. It is about the right length - with enough relevant detail to be useful and it avoids including too much information. Some sections could be improved to be more relevant to classroom teachers / TAs (Differentiation). Alex Lawrence, SEN Classroom Teacher / Head of English and Literacy Across the Classroom
