‘Up until recently, the most frequent search term on the [SNJ] site was “Senco”. These days, she says, it is “Eotas” the acronym that stands for “educated other than at school”’ theguardian.com/society/articl…

This is great "There is simply no avoiding the fact that the current SEND system feels like it is failing everyone: pupils, parents, teachers & leaders." But please be more positive about those parents fighting for their child's right to an education tinyurl.com/46euahjm

Overhauling education funding so schools can better meet rising needs of pupils with SEND should be a priority for the next government, a think-tank says. The IFS says focusing per-pupil funding on an “average pupil” is a cause of the funding crisis cypnow.co.uk/news/article/s…

Very worrying data from DfE. Suspensions up over 30%. Exclusions up from 6,500 to 9,376 - the highest recorded annual number of permanent exclusions. As always, SEN (3.5-6x the rate of perm exc), FSM (5x the rate) children) are most at risk.tinyurl.com/3efwayxa 1/2🧵

Thanks to Law Society Gazette for highlighting the risk to children & young people's legal rights to special educational provision & support that meets their needs. The system fails too many children, but the answer isn't to take away their rights. lawgazette.co.uk/commentary-and…

There are many problems with the provision of special education in this country but can we please stop blaming the kids and their families. Fund local authorities properly to deliver on the existing EHCPs and and things could get better. theguardian.com/education/arti…

We've noticed a number of LAs (incorrectly) telling parents of children/YP with EHC plans that they only have to provide 16 hours' special educational provision per week for those over compulsory school age. This is incorrect. Read our FAQ for the facts: bit.ly/3M953f5
