Curricula for Teaching Children and Young People with Severe or Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties offers a range of compelling arguments for a distinct and separate pedagogical approach to the learning needs of the most educationally challenging pupils. This book, written in accessible, common sense and non-academic language, provides an easy-to-follow alternative curriculum specifically designed to enhance and enrich the learning of children with profound and multiple learning difficulties. Chapter by chapter, guidelines and support are offered in key curriculum areas, some of which include:

- Cognition

- Language, Literacy and Communication

- Mathematical

- Physical

- Sensory

- Creative

- Care

- Play

- Problem solving.

This highly practical resource is essential reading for any educational professional, parents, school governors, teachers, teaching assistants, therapists and indeed anyone involved with maximising the educational opportunities of those with profound learning difficulties.

His first book, Turning the Tables on Challenging Behaviour, was published by Routledge in 2008.

Viv Hinchcliffe has held an interest in SLD and PMLD curriculum since his involvement on In Search of a Curriculum, published by Rectory Paddock School in 1983, and this has continued unabated. He has published widely on issues as varied as language and communication, self-advocacy, drama and leadership, is a regular speaker at conferences and has been a member of a number of DfE and DoH committees. Viv has recently taken up the post of Head of Drumbeat School and ASD Service, the new flagship specialist ASD School of the London Borough of Lewisham.
