The Adopter'S Handbook On Education (Scotland) Av Alison Rennie Parkinson, Eileen Fursland

How can adoptive parents best support their child''s time in education? Many adopted children struggle with the demands of school and need understanding and extra support that is not always readily available. Parents know their child best - whether, for example, they are settling into a new primary school or coping with the transition to secondary school. Teachers and other school staff need guidance from adoptive parents about how best to help a child feel safe and understood in the classroom. This book provides the support needed in this task to help a child have the best possible experience at school.
