The contributions in this collection first consider issues such as empowerment and sources for learning and behaviour difficulties. The central sections, written by respected experts, look at different kinds of partnership and how they can be used, including peer tutoring, counselling, contracts, class-based support, self- monitoring and a range of whole school approaches.

Even the intelligent child can have learning problems. Fifteen to twenty percent of school children puzzle their parents. They do not learn as well as expected, and have unexpected behaviour problems. These children are often described this way: "Should do better"; "Can't sit still"; "The class clown"; "Rebellious"; "Not trying"; "Dumb". Parents instinctively know there is a problem, but don't know how to solve it. This book was written for keen parents and for all professionals who are needed to help the intelligent child who is not coping in the classroom. It will help with diagnosis and presents an extensive program of graded activities which are easy to follow. Full of practical suggestions and sequences of activities, covering a wide range of areas, it is ideal for planning both therapy and home programes.
