Yet they help families gain access to schooling from preschool on, they work with class teachers to include traveller pupils, they develop appropriate books and resources and in their support of mobile pupils they are leaders in the application of the latest technology. This book describes what these teachers do and how they do it. Each chapter deals with a vital element of the work of TESS heads of service and teachers. They discuss legislation and Traveller sites, governemtn and local authorities, working with families, working in the schools and thier innovative educational practice in literaccy and technology to support mobile pupils.
