We are unaware of any evidence at all that backs up Richard Tice’s random assertion. Nor are we aware of Reform having a policy on special educational needs and disabilities. (1/3)

New research 📝 negative school experiences generate twice the emotional burden in autistic and ADHD teens compared to neurotypical students. This rejects previous thinking that depression risk is due solely to deficits in ability to regulate emotions. annafreud.org/news/neurodive…

The Government understands SEND Legal Rights... Right? We don't think so! Where are the aspirations of the Children & Families Act? We deserve #MoreThanOrdinary #SaveOurChildrensRights saveourchildrensrights.org.uk

Cannot wait for The Times this Sunday. Our doctor has given evidence alongside many fabulous voices on subject of Fii, and discrimination faced by SEND. The drums are getting louder 🥁

@SEND_Action But the current system does not need to fail: there is little wrong with it that could not be addressed by adequate funding and proper accountability.

@PeterStefanovi2 This is a contradictory decision. What about disabled children in education? SEND education is in crisis and this decision ignores all of that. The Labour govt wants to gut SEND education provision. Make it make sense please!

You can’t build a successful education system around shame, embarrassment, detention & exclusion. You can’t create inclusion for all via a curriculum that only works for some. So as the saying goes “If the child doesn’t learn the way you teach, start teaching the way they learn.”

I have never seen a pupils behaviour improve with detentions, suspensions, or punitive consequences. Why are we still seeing these strategies used in educational settings? 🧠🌱
