The new Special Educational Needs Code of Practice with detailed guidance on the support students should receive in educational and training settings up to the age of 25, will have significant impact on the sector. Given the pressures that this will bring to already busy staff it would be useful to let them have a resource which gives concise information on a range of syndromes and conditions faced by learners with additional needs and which will help them in their work.

Where can you locate information on 67 Syndromes and Conditions in a photocopiable format which can be shared with colleagues? The answer is in a quick reference set of resources which appear in 3 volumes entitled Behaviour Solutions – A Guide to Syndromes and Conditions.

Each volume gives a guide to a wide range of conditions (there are 67 in all) and looks at definitions, symptoms and characteristics, causes, treatments, strategies to use in the classroom and a list of useful references including websites.

Volume 1, (A Revised Guide to Syndromes and Conditions), focuses on 20 conditions including Autism, Asperger Syndrome, ADHD, Conduct and Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Tourette’s Syndrome, OCD and Dyslexia. It contains latest research findings, 3 new conditions as well as updated information on conditions relating to the recently published DSM5.

Volume 2 (A Guide to More Syndromes and Conditions) moves on to 25 conditions and issues not covered in the first volume including Anxiety Disorder, Eating Disorders, Mental Health, Self-Harm and Cerebral Palsy.

Volume 3, (A Guide to Further Syndromes and Conditions) moves on to 22 conditions and issues not covered in the first two volumes including Selective Mutism, Joint Hypermobility, Bipolar Disorder and Apraxia.

One particular benefit is that the books come in a photocopiable format so that if you wish to circulate details of a condition to several colleagues, or indeed to provide information to concerned parents, this is easily achieved.

Further details of the volumes and their contents are to be found on www.behaviourmatters.com/syndromesoffer.

Cost of the 3 volumes is £60 (a saving of £15 on normal price) plus £6 postage and packaging.
