 Boxall Profile Handbookby Marion Bennathan & Marjorie Boxall £20.00 including free UK postage for NGN members. The Boxall Profile is an invaluable resource for helping teachers develop a precise and accurate understanding of children’s emotional and behavioural difficulties, and for planning effective interventions and support activities. The Handbook includes the Profile itself, with copyright waived to allow reproduction, with clear guidelines for its use and for interpreting the results. It gives case studies of children in serious difficulties showing how the Profile can be used to create effective Individual Education Plans. What users say:“The Boxall Profile is unique in the way it helps teachers in mainstream school to understand the emotional problems behind difficult behaviour. Its use encourages staff to plan intervention that is effective and contributes to the positive ethos that is needed if standards are to be raised, exclusions eliminated and inclusiveness to become a reality”. Sue Panter, Honorary General Secretary, National Association for Special Educational Needs. “Confronted with a child whose anxiety-provoking behaviour seems to make no sense, the Profile is where you start. It gives you insights and suggests points of entry into the child’s world”. Nurture Group Teacher. “It is very easy to use, quick and constructive. It is only too easy for teachers to start labelling children as aggressive or psychopathic. The Profile makes everybody think about what lies behind the behaviour and it stimulates thought and discussion about what we might do next with a child in serious difficulties”. Teacher in charge of secondary education in a residential special school. “This Profile gives us a structure to look at young people’s behaviour, to discuss it constructively and to plan together what we can do about it. We have not discussed our pupils as positively as this before. Teacher at a secure unit for adolescents. “I have just spent a whole day writing ten pages of A4 trying to analyse and describe the difficulties of a boy in a mainstream class with such serious problems that he is at risk of exclusion. If I had known about the Profile, I could have done it much better and in a fraction of the time”. Junior School SENCO
