This book is the ultimate guide to differentiation and adaptive teaching in early years, schools and further education settings by Sue Cowley, bestselling author of Getting the Buggers to Behave. It offers over 90 practical and time-saving strategies in every classroom. The Ultimate Guide to Differentiation demonstrates how teachers already differentiate and adapt their teaching much of the time, in subtle and creative ways.

The book takes the reader through the different methods and approaches to differentiation and adaptive teaching, providing a step-by-step guide to each. It is broken down into five core areas - planning, resources, learners, teaching and assessment - and readers can dip in and out to find strategies as and when they need them. Written in Sue's much loved realistic, honest and practical style, The Ultimate Guide to Differentiation will help teachers, practitioners and support staff to feel confident that they are meeting the needs of every learner.
