Professional Books
Your essential guide to inclusive practice

By National Day Nurseries Association (Hope Education, NDNA members £17, non-members £22)

Reviewed by Julie Vaggers, part-time head of Rowland Hill Children's Centre and Nursery School, London and tutor, mentor and assessor on the National Professional Qualification in Integrated Centre Leadership programme

This spiral bound booklet is a very handy and practical guide to inclusion. It introduces the practitioner to a range of topics, including the relevant legislation covering England, Wales and Scotland, regulation and inspection, funding, good practice, support and information and useful contacts. This is all covered in 54 pages, and then there are a variety of templates and sample policies for inclusion, equalities, settling in, admissions and medication. A healthcare plan proforma and an individualised SEN plan are also included. The accompanying CD Rom is an excellent resource. It is in Word format so all the forms and policies can be easily adapted to your setting. The internet contacts can be simply followed by accessing the link.
