1/ Cllr Rachel Hood on BBC Suffolk today talking about how some SEND families PREFER to have a particular specialist school. Demonstrating your ignorance around getting a suitable SEND placement there Rachel. Approx 2hrs 25 mins and 20 seconds in bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…

5/ Cllr Hood says SCC have an effective team and families should contact their case leads with issues. If they responded within policy timeframes she would perhaps have a point. But Cllr Hood is obviously still in denial about the communication issues still experienced by many.

Looks like Department for Education are sending in people who might know what they are doing in the hope of addressing Suffolk CC's mismanagement of SEND. suffolklearning.com/finance/school…

Press release from Suffolk SEND Crisis

How many EHCPs stipulate Speech and Language or Occupational Therapy? How many are not being delivered? Too expensive to answer yet but how can you possibly commission without this basic data? whatdotheyknow.com/request/ehcp_t…

6 years since the Abubakar fail of 2016 and this is where we are. No wonder you want to keep this stuff secret.

Steven Wright Suffolk CC Kerry-ann Why Suffolk SEND Crisis Ashton Somerville They are only making changes because parents put in FOI to highlight the failures they were pushing forward with 🙄😡

Suffolk CC Kerry-ann Why Suffolk SEND Crisis Ashton Somerville We couldn't deliver the SaLT required in EHCPs because someone asked us how many EHCPs specified SaLT.

Suffolk CC Kerry-ann Why Suffolk SEND Crisis Ashton Somerville We couldn't educate hundreds of disabled children because someone asked us how many disabled children were out of education.

Suffolk CC Kerry-ann Why Suffolk SEND Crisis Ashton Somerville We can't do anything about SEND exclusions because someone keeps asking us about how many SEND exclusions there are and then telling the press. eadt.co.uk/news/nearly-ha…

While you're at it, and given your specific role within the Council, were my children benefiting from their full legal entitlements when you wrote this letter? Parents will start to act "reasonably" when you start to comply with your legal duties.

Always a scream. youtube.com/watch?v=Gwp42n…

Many disabled children under Suffolk CC can only dream of the most rudimentary education. Access to PE and arts etc is, to them, an unimaginable luxury. You should be holding the officers to account.

With Beccarooo and many other families which have been #FailedBySuffolk. A #SEND system which leaves children and parents feeling isolated, exhausted and broken is a system completely unfit for purpose. For years we've fought for real change, and we'll keep fighting.
