We’re thrilled to announce the arrival of our first school mini bus in over 10 years! 🚐✨ Our students will soon be out and about, experiencing a range of cultural capital opportunities and creating unforgettable memories in the local community!
Thanks @bphillipsonMP for meeting with us on Friday. Significant challenges in the system but we very much appreciate the focus and commitment to our specialist sector. @NNSP21 look forward to continue the conversation and working in partnership to find solutions #Specialist
Talking SEND reform with school leaders from the specialist sector.
We've inherited a 'lose, lose, lose' system in the Tories' own words but I'm determined to grip the issue.
We've taken crucial first steps but there's still a long way to go to restore parents’ trust.
Such a treat to visit @SunningdaleNE last Friday. A joyous school full of aspiration and opportunity. Huge thanks to @be_more_awesome and team for the tour and being so generous with your time #Specialist#BeMore
It was fantastic to visit @SunningdaleNE and receive a certificate from the school council - now on the 'Wall of Awesomeness'!
The children are loving their time at this brilliant school. Special thanks to the staff, focused on giving every child the best start in life.

@PauletteHamilto@vickyfoxcroft@Keir_Starmer we are appalled to read the below. As a network that represents specialist settings across the country we would be happy to connect you with young people & adults who enhance & add enormous value to their communities #Inclusion
🚨 Harrison Road planning application REJECTED
I supported local residents in opposing this proposal, as it would have caused increased noise, parking, and a change in the character of the property, which would have negatively affected the area.

Very concerned to see huge sums of money being taken out of the system when our members & colleagues are facing such challenging times to maintain aspirational provision for the most vulnerable learners in society against a backdrop of cuts & significant deficits #EnoughIsEnough
Last weekend, I made my second debut for Evergreen. I'm looking forward to helping a very young team to stay in the South East Division 1 and, hopefully, back on the road towards returning to the National League.

Wishing all our @NNSP21 members, friends and followers a fantastic summer break and in particular thinking of some very special colleagues retiring / moving onto new roles and opportunities today #SummerHolidays
We continue to monitor the impact of recent pay announcements and in particular the impact on specialist settings that were omitted from any affordability calculations. Our members are sharing their projections and we will work across the summer to gain a clearer picture
Very concerning to see news filtering through today re only 3% of the proposed 6.5% pay increase for teachers being funded. This will have a catastrophic impact on many specialist settings across the country. @NNSP21 will follow closely and respond on behalf of our members
Great meeting with the most amazing specialist leaders from across the country on Thurs. A most important time for our sector to come together. Special thanks to our friends @SimonKnight100 @equals_co_uk@Ofstednews@be_more_awesome @PerseidSchool for the contributions & support
We are so pleased to be hosting the @NNSP21 at @SwissCottageSch today for the National Members Meeting. Sharing key updates for specialist provisions with Alistair Crawford
💸 Special schools are staring into budget holes as deep as £1.5 million, a Schools Week investigation has found, as heads say 'enough is enough' and launch a national campaign against more cuts
