Nurture Groups in School and at Home: Connecting With Children With Social, Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties (Innovative Learning for All)
Paul Cooper, Yonca Tiknaz
This book explores the ways in which pupils with social, emotional and behavioural difficulties can be effectively engaged in schooling - either in school or at home. It explains the social and emotional underpinnings of learning and presents practical strategies for aiding engagement. Nurture groups, originally devised and implemented in the 1970s, are specially designed classes that cater for pupils having difficulties in adjusting to the requirements of mainstream classrooms. Paul Cooper and Yonca Tiknaz present evidence of the success of nurture groups from the perspectives of the children participating in them, their parents and school staff members who manage nurture groups in schools, and examine what factors affect the success of the group. From this, they draw key messages for effective practice, including the fundamental importance of recognising a child's emotional needs and meeting them, and the pivotal role of the relationship between the teaching staff co-ordinating the group. "Nurture Groups in School and at Home" will provide essential information and accessible advice for teaching professionals running nurture groups in schools and for parents and carers running them at home.
