The early years of a child’s life are a time of growth, development and discovery. For children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), these early experiences are especially crucial to lay the foundations for lifelong learning. This highly accessible and reflective book will guide you in creating inclusive, nurturing environments where every child is valued and supported.

The book explores the foundations of effective and inclusive practice for children with SEND, introducing several core themes which weave throughout:

- The power of positive, supportive relationships – with children, families and fellow professionals.

- The importance of taking a holistic, child-centred approach that sees beyond ‘labels’ to recognise each child’s unique identity.

- The value of universal inclusive practice that designs environments and experiences that welcome and celebrate diversity from the outset.

Each chapter covers a key topic, from legislation and early identification to teamwork and transitions, offering both practical guidance and space for reflections and notes. Thought-provoking activities, real-world examples and ‘top tips’ to translate key ideas to your own setting are also included.

Whether you are new to working in the early years or are looking to deepen or refresh your understanding of inclusive approaches, the book will support you in making a positive difference to the lives of children with SEND and their families.
