If government, parents & schools work together, children thrive. I'll hold up my end of the deal: to roll out breakfast clubs, mental health support, curriculum reform, careers advice, better SEND provision. My ask is simple: help children into school. mumsnet.com/talk/guest_pos…

At the beginning of the new term, I want to recognise those parents supporting children into school despite facing difficulties with SEND and mental health. This government will work every day to make sure that school is welcoming and safe - the best place for your child.

This Labour government is committed to opening up music, sport, art and drama to all children, delivering an experience-rich education for all - not just those whose parents can afford it.
