Teamwork in the Management of Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties: Developing Peer Support Systems for Teachers in Mainstream and Special Schools

First Published in 2000. The work described in this book offers one model of 'peer consultancy' that supports teachers in providing an inclusive and effective education for pupils with emotional and behavioural difficulties. Developing peer support systems for teachers in school gives focus to teachers' learning and supports them as they work toward more inclusive education. Hill and Parsons present the topic so that its contents may be used as an action research programme in school to test the efficacy of peer support systems for teachers.
