Drawing on the perspectives of staff and pupils, the authors provide detailed case studies of the approaches and strategies being adopted in a variety of settings (primary, secondary and FE) to foster inclusion and reduce and prevent exclusion. It also identifies a number of different frameworks, drawn from the case studies, which can be used by practitioners working in other settings to support their own reflection and development work. Particular importance is placed, throughout the book, on valuing the domain of personal experience in the life of the school community. The authors explore this theme in detail, suggesting ways in which it might become a priority focus of further development work in schools.

'[This book] shows teachers and managers how five schools have successfully developed and implemented practical approaches to avoid excluding students. The book looks at what schools can do to build more harmonious communities and engage students, particularly those at risk of exclusion, more productively in all areas of school life.' - Gesine Neuhof, University of Leicester
'The work is based on the authors' "Positive Alternatives to Exclusion" research project, but, mercifully, it does not read like a research project. Instead the authors succeed in telling a story.' - David Galloway, British Journal of Guidance & Counselling
'A must for every school ... [it should be] referred to by all staff to see if there are any ways they can change the way they do things to help children stay in school.' - Caroline Hensby, Adders Organisation

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
