Description

The Teacher's Introduction to Pathological Demand Avoidance Essential Strategies for the Classroom by Clare Truman provides valuable guidance for educators working with students with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA). This book offers a comprehensive approach to supporting PDA pupils, focusing on building a collaborative relationship and creating a comfortable learning environment.

Truman outlines practical strategies for teachers to implement, including activities designed to address key issues such as sensory issues, preferred language and phrasing of demands, social skills, and recognising distressed behaviour. By adopting a child-centred approach to learning, teachers can help PDA pupils thrive in the school environment.

This book is a useful tool for busy teaching staff working with PDA pupils, offering chapter summaries and simple activities to support their work. With its thoughtful and practical advice, it is an essential resource for anyone looking to improve their understanding and support of PDA pupils.
