As a lecturer at university one comes across many students who have special needs or disabilities and the leap from school or FE study to university life can feel overwhelming.

Planning Transitions for Young People with Special Needs and Disabilities: A Practical Workbook for Parents, Students and Teachers: Amazon.co.uk: Dr Alison Doyle: 9781910179932: Books

This book is well overdue but at last it is here! Although it is geared to young people and parents as a workbook, it really should be on the shelves of every University or, even, offered to students through learning support. It certainly is the kind of tool that could be recommended reading to students at the point at which they have accepted a place at University in order for them to prepare for different standards and methods of teaching and learning. Campus life and negotiating the physical geography can also be daunting and this workbook seems to have thought of everything that a student might encounter and a way of working through it to achieve a positive outcome but, just as importantly, empowerment, control and confidence.
