First Published in 1996. This book forms part of a series that brings together wide-ranging contributions which: are written from both professional and parental viewpoints; offer an assessment of what has been achieved; explore a number of problematic issues and experiences and illustrate developments that are beginning to take shape. It will appeal to those with a special interest in and commitment to home-school work in all its actual and potential facets. This book, like the series it introduces, is an attempt to capture the flavour of home-school work in Britain in the 1990s. It conveys a mixture of familiar concerns and recent developments, of shared interests and differences of approach that relate to differences of setting and circumstance.
