For all the parents struggling with home schooling, please spare a thought for those families for whom this is the everyday normal. Not because of choice, but because they have a child with special needs and there are simply no suitable schools available.

Really good article about how disabled children and their parents are treated by society just for trying to secure basic human rights. Also sad the way parents are often misunderstood, judged & criticised if they don’t do this in a certain “acceptable” manner...

Tried legal help 4 18 yr old's appeal. Nightmare, hugely inefficient on ourselves, documents not passed on on several occasions. Felt like legal kinder garten at times. Others have experienced worse. Oddly, LA better prepared than usual. 3rd hearing pending. The cost is MASSIVE.

Sure funding is limiting & disadvantageous. Personally, & another case, it's not worth price of 1-2 reports. Espec. if all necessary reports not advised for! Struggling to understand LA firms furloughing busy staff over xmas too, when worked all year without interruption!

NEW POST: The #SENDReview is light on ideas for boosting Speech, language and communication. The charity I CAN says the Green Paper must embed communications skills across education, and that includes teacher training specialneedsjungle.com/send-review-mu…

"It does seem at this point like the Department for Education is trying to ensure that anyone who cares about defending children's rights is so buried under paperwork that they might just be crushed by the weight of it." It does feel a bit like that - but we are not crushed!

Hey Vodafone UK, what do I need to do to urgently speak to someone who can explain why you’ve taking unauthorised payments from the account of a vulnerable adult? Not one person I’ve spoken to can help explain it.
