“It’s a disaster. A total disaster area….Parents already have to fight for EHCPs at a time when local authorities have had their budgets slashed and many academy trusts don’t have the resources or expertise to deal with the issue.” thesun.co.uk/news/23981493/…

Thank you Justin Madders MP. Interesting that she doesn’t deny it …

As #LearningDisabilityWeek draws to a close, please can I ask organisations to look at and share the website I created to increase access for all #SEND in museums, galleries and heritage settings. Not just LD focused but lots of practical advice. Thanks 💜

☀️Fabulous first outdoor swim of the year today at Helmsley Open Air Pool. Perfect way to end a busy week 🏊‍♀️

2019 theguardian.com/education/2019… A 10-year-old boy with special needs who complained of bullying was forced by staff to listen to classmates listing the reasons they didn’t like him – and had to write these on a hand-drawn poster that was then stuck on his classroom wall.
In a case

Children with special needs are being failed. Parents have a right to be furious.

“Parents are either (portrayed as) pointy elbowed and entitled, or feckless and lazy. We really need to grapple with this because parents are hearing this.”

For nearly a year, I've been talking to Molly & her family. She's #autistic , +struggles with #anxiety +eating problms. Stuck in a general hospital as there was no more appropriate support, this is her story. It's also the story of many others with autism.
