There are over 35,000 refugee children in British schools, most of which are in London. This book written by authorities on refugee education and teachers working with refugee children in their classroom, describes the positive support offered to these children. The authors contend that if their education is effective, these young people go on to make a significant contribution to our society. The book maps the approaches and initiatives that have proved successful. It examines the psychological adaptation of refugee children and young people; the educational experiences of older refugee students; schools admissions and induction practices; positive strategies to combat racism and xenophobia; home/school liaison and the support of unaccompanied refugee children.
