Information from carers and colleagues. It is important for teachers and parents to work together and share any concerns they have regarding their child. They can share ideas and strategies to assist the child in reaching their full potential. 3.2 Children and young people’s development may not follow the expected pattern for a number of reasons.

The vital abilities that each child must pick up are to understand necessary instructions. This is an important age that children are attempting to guess who they are. Educators will have to help the students if they need it because certain circumstances that students will rely on the teacher more than their own parents. I am certain that Ron’s conduct has a lot to do with the new surroundings. When a student is in new surroundings they will search and test the grounds on which they can and cannot do.
“Repetitive behavior involves repeated movements and verbalizations. These include motor movements, persistent attention to parts of objects and strict adherence to routines.” (Turnbull A, Turnbull R, Wehmeyer M, Exceptional Lives Special Education in Today’s Schools 2010). Now, with students who have autism it is very important to have a good simple routine and stick to it. And it is very important to tell them about a change at the beginning of the day rather than waiting right up until it is supposed to happen. Sticking to a routine will help things to not be so chaotic when it comes to transition time and telling the student about a change will help that student deal with that change before problem behavior can occur.
The Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO) is the teacher with overall responsibility for coordinating provision for children with special educational needs and is responsible for monitoring their progress. The SENCO must follow the SEN code of practice, this code of practice outlines their responsibilities and role including, liasing with teachers, parents of the children with special educational needs and liasing with external agencies such as health and social services and educational psychology services.

* Help establish a sense of personal and social identity. | b) Consider your answer a) explain the possible different responses from other youth related services.Other youth related services have different goals to youth work so the ways they support young people sometimes differ. Schools have targets set by their local authority which means they are have to focus mainly on the academic aspect of a young person’s development. To reach these targets teachers have to constantly put pressure on pupils to succeed in assessments and exams, and are therefore unable to take into account other pressures in their lives. As a consequence of this they are expected to deal out punishments in accordance with the schools behavior management policy to ensure that learning progresses at a pace
Assessment and Educational Interventions for Students with LD Vernice Blackaby Grand Canyon University: SPE 359 Characteristics of Learning Disabilities and Strategies to Teach Individuals with LD May 19, 2013 Assessment and Educational Interventions for Students with LD According to the Learning Disabilities Association of America a learning disability is a “neurological condition that interferes with a person’s ability to store, process, or produce information” (Learning Disabilities Association of America, n.d.). A learning disability (LD) can affect a student’s ability to write, read, spell, figure out math, social skills, attention, and memory. Students with LDs will have a difficult time in school and will find it hard to succeed therefore it is important to find ways to detect the type of disability and then find ways to help the student. Unlike physical handicaps or disabilities like mental retardation and autism, to name a few, LDs cannot be seen and might go undetected. But with the right type of help, students with LDs can succeed and do well in school and life.
Current Issues Summary and Response Matt 12/12/2010 Intro As a future special education teacher one of my jobs will be to keep up-to-date on current issues in the education field and let my parents know about any helpful development on these current issues. It is important for teachers to keep tabs on new developments that could be useful to better their understanding of education as a whole. There are a plethora of current issues involving special education. These issues range from more controversial to less controversial. Some of the more controversial issues are the use of tests to place students into special education, how should we grade students with special needs and how to discipline a student who is in special education.
Those parents have to stay vigorously involved in schooling their kids. Surely the obligation to ensure our nation’s future must be shared also by those who don’t have children in the public schools. Those people who should take an interest in the students that will eventually be stepping into the workforce. They should be developing work-study groups, internships and job placement banks that they can recruit and develop to be successful. Evidently, the tasks of educating our children nowadays are a lot more difficult than simple examinations and easy solutions.
Assessments are test that are given so that the teacher can see what level the child is on and to see what path do they need to take to start educating the child properly. When a child is assessed properly time will not be wasted by simply putting activities in from of them. Children learn in different ways and those with disabilities have to have the correct instruction to help him or her. There are weaknesses of assessments as well. Assessments can be very time consuming and depending on the child they may get restless while taking them.
Peer Assisted Learning Strategies (PALS) Effective Reading Intervention for Children with Special Needs? Classrooms today are filled with an increasingly diverse range of students. Many teachers feel unequipped to accommodate such diverse instructional needs of those with and without disabilities in their classrooms (Mastropieri & Scruggs, 1997; Vaughn, S., Gersten, R., & Chard, D.J., 2000). This is not due to a lack of effective reading interventions or instructional strategies, but is more about the inaccessibility of strategies that teachers can employ with large groups of students who have a wide range of academic needs (Vaughn et al., 2000). Through experimental research, only a few instructional approaches have demonstrated positive outcomes for students with diverse learning needs while being delivered in a general education setting (McMaster, K. L., Fuchs, D., & Fuchs, L. S., 2006).
