⁦Department for Education⁩ ⁦Sir Gavin Williamson CBE MP⁩ CYP with EHCP’s are NOT a homogeneous group. My lad is safer at home than at school & is attending all his online lessons. Yet he’s recorded as absent because of your prejudiced & ignorant policy.What message does this give a teen?

Half termly attendance record of a teen with an EHCP who has participated in all his online lessons for the last 6 weeks in his home rather than inside a school building. ⁦Sir Gavin Williamson CBE MP⁩ ignored my request to explain his prejudiced policy directly to teen.

Sir Gavin Williamson CBE MP Vicky Ford If you don’t have anyone advising you on why this speech makes a mockery of your supposed commitment to children’s mental health then please get in touch. I’d genuinely be happy to help in anyway I can. gov.uk/government/spe…

We are officially 10 years old!! I originally set it up to try to educate those working in schools about trauma, who could then use that knowledge to support the children they work with. We haven’t quite changed the world yet but we have done a lot #proud #traumaaware #education

This wouldn’t be a magic wand but it would certainly be a big help for parents/carers forced to fight at every step of this journey petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6173…

Adoption support needs to improve and fast. Trauma does not disappear when an adoption order is made. It often takes years of really high quality support to make even small changes thetimes.co.uk/article/we-had… #Adoption #AdoptionSupport #ASF #AdoptionSupportFund #Education #SEND

Are there any Midlands based paediatricians with an interest in working with The Child Psychology Service CIC on our exciting new FASD project? Something rather large is brewing…

Fantastic thought provoking thread. If we wouldn’t put up with this then why do we expect our children to? I experienced this very thing,seeing my child fall deeper into a fog of anxiety and despair with each passing day. It was absolutely heartbreaking. Thankful we chose #HomeEd
