Description
Nurture Groups in School and at Home explores how to engage pupils with social, emotional and behavioural difficulties in schooling. The book explains the social and emotional underpinnings of learning and presents practical strategies for aiding engagement.
Originally devised in the 1970s, nurture groups are specially designed classes that cater for pupils having difficulties adjusting to mainstream classrooms. Paul Cooper and Yonca Tiknaz examine what factors affect their success and draw key messages for effective practice.
This book provides essential information and accessible advice for teaching professionals and parents running nurture groups in schools or at home, highlighting the importance of recognising a child's emotional needs and meeting them.
