Spotted by Mrs. A near our local polling station. (It's very blue round here.)

Twitter hive mind, does anyone know of any stats relating to yr6-yr7 transition for autistic children? Anecdotally, I know this is a very difficult time and some autistic kids find the shift impossible and end up out of school, but I'd like to know if there is any published data

Those of us who live on the front line know only too well how broken the system actually is. If only 25% of children who are referred to Camhs actually get an appointment what happens to the other 75%? We need systemic changes in health, social care and education.

Ombudsman found in our favour after our complaint about SEN taking a ridiculously long time to provide a residential school place. The report is VERY gratifying. 😁

Upcoming documentary I was involved in to help raise awareness of Fasd youtu.be/LvTr4jd-dyk

C Roberts(tweets from a colonised Scotland) Marina Purkiss £350 million / week X 52 weeks = £18.2 billion Govt planned spending on NHS backlog & Social Care = £12.0 billion. GREAT! Unless the govt has been LYING we should have £6.2 billion left-over for ice cream! #ToryLiars #BrexitLies #RejoinEU

On #fasdawarenessday, I want to highlight fact that FASD is a major challenge faced by many children and families in foster care and adoption across the UK and Ireland, that needs to be properly recognised, and with an appropriate level of assessment and support provided.

Ignore the Times headline and sickening wording and read the real story. Families falling apart - the devastating consequences of a lack of support adoptionuk.org/blog/families-…

“What an absolute load of rubbish... Did anyone else’s friends get contracts?” Watch @JessPhillips and Matt Hancock disagree over the handling of PPE contracts during the pandemic. #Peston

Whilst NHS staff were holding the hands of dying COVID patients up and down the country, this was happening. Is this sheer arrogance or just utter contempt for NHS staff? Never mind the families who have lost people. RT if you think this is a disgrace. x.com/TanyaRose2021/…

Why does no one tell us about this stuff? There can only be two reasons. Either SWs and other professionals don’t know about it (why not?) or they don’t want us to know about it (why not?) … either way it’s not a good look for them. #CPV #CPVA #VCB #SEND

🚨 82% of people are against the privatisation of Channel 4. Share this and let Rt Hon Nadine Dorries know that you're one of them!

New! Cassetteboy vs The Tories May 2022. (contains a swear)

Heading towards a section 20 to facilitate change from 38- to 52-week residential school placement due to unmanageable violent behaviour at home. What LA naughtiness should we look out for before signing? Advice and cautionary tales welcome! The POTATO Group?

LEAVE MEANS LEAVE

Yet another change of social worker today, apparently. The way it seems to work is that we just get an email from the new one saying that the old one has left, which is absolutely marvellous for children who struggle with transitions. 🤦🏼‍♀️

What is FASD? Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder includes physical, mental, behavioural and learning impairments and is commonly misdiagnosed as other disorders such as ADHD which have some similar symptoms. #FASDAwarenessMonth #DRYMESTER
