ASN Reform Scotland Emma The Sunday Post Jenny Gilruth "...additional support needs are being increasingly recognised by local councils" It is now over 20 years since the 2004 Additional Support for Learning Act.

Just had a look through the comments on the STV News video on Facebook and honestly—why are so many people immediately assuming the PSA is having a go at neurodivergent children? The woman in the clip doesn’t even mention neurodivergence. Not once. Yet the comments are flooded

In Scotland, too many parents/carers of children with Additional Support Needs are exhausted—fighting a system that should help. Legal action? It’s expensive, draining, and out of reach for so many of us. Why must we go to tribunal just to get our kids the support they’re

Parents and carers have spoken. Is anyone in power actually listening? More importantly — will we finally see action to make education truly inclusive?
