Children with Acquired Brain Injury ( ABI ) are often an overlooked group, particularly in Mainstream schools.

Attached is an article just published by Cath Bate and Colleagues. Cath was part of a group of Teachers in Surrey , that I led through school focused, inquiry based projects a few years ago . She has gone on from that experience to study for an MSc, and deepen her knowledge and insight in this field.

This is a rare gem of an article, offering some rich insights.

It was recently published in JORSEN. https://doi.org/10.1111/1471-3802.12517
