Dr Tracy Alloway has been awarded the prestigious Joseph Lister Award from the British Science Association ' The authors have written a guide for practitioners that is both highly practical & yet based upon sound theoretical principles This book achieves a successful yet often elusive link between theory research & practice & deserves to have a high readership I will have no hesitation in recommending it to a range of readers'
- Jane Mott Support for Learning' This book fulfils its aim to explain working memory & the limits it places on children's classroom learning For teachers it gives a very clear guide & fills a gap in understanding that can only lead to more child-centred approaches to teaching & learning'

- SNIPThe topic of working memory nowadays tends to dominate discussions with teachers & parents & both groups can helpfully be directed to this easy-to-read but serious text (it) is likely to prove a turning-point in the management & facilitation of hard-to-teach children In a situation muddied by ever-multiplying syndromes & disorders this book delivers a clarifying & reassuring isolation of the major cognitive characteristic that cuts across all the boundaries & leaves the class teacher & SENCO empowered I think very highly of the book & shall be recommending it steadily'
