SEN Struggle

I am just a person who has gone through the SEN system a bit and if I can help, let me know! #TeamSEND

[SEN Legal @SENLegalltd]

With digital hearings becoming the new 'normal' in the SEND Tribunal, Trainee Solicitor - Richard Nettleton and Solicitor - Hayley Mason have put together some 'top tips' for any parents preparing for a digital hearing. We hope you find them useful! #SEN

We can’t let our most vulnerable down. We need their rights protected, and support provided as a priority #senwarriors @SENstruggle

@WidgetsWorld @mimismumma @expertlegal @irwinmitchell Curious. Very curious!

[SEN Struggle @SENstruggle]

@WidgetsWorld @mimismumma @expertlegal That’s very odd, I called them today after seeing your message and they were very clear that did not have a legal aid franchise and pointed me to @irwinmitchell

@Selina_GS_ @eleanorjwright Shameful! I’m still waiting for @BBCPanorama to investigate LA ‘independent’ contractors! The whole system is a scam from my experience.

[SEN Struggle @SENstruggle]

@WidgetsWorld @mimismumma @expertlegal Sadly, this firm does not do legal aid. There are very few that do!

According to school it was ‘not appropriate’ to provide child’s tutor (who is currently providing ALL education) a copy of the EHCP.

[Eleanor Wright @eleanorjwright]

Latest excuse for not accepting independent reports: "They always make the child sound worse than he is." The answer to that needs to be "What qualifications do you have that mean you know better?"

@BarnsleySEND Adding Kent to this list! I will even buy them their own cardboard boxes as a gift!!

#SEND mums - you know that thing where you're waiting for the LA to email and you just know it will be sent at 1minute to knock-off time? That.

[sen-help @EHCP_Advisers]

There has to be a question before this one - parents, do you understand what an EHCP is/what it does? Only informed parents can truly co-produce in any meaningful way. Anything else is pure tokenism.

[StarlightMcKenzie @StarlightMcKenz]

@AnneHeavey321 @matthewhood SEND support is the dumping ground of shrugs. Time in that category should be limited if happening at all., and its purpose of existence only to catapult kids back into accessing whole class teaching (which has to be better and accommodate all).

[Barney Angliss @AspieDeLaZouch]

This week's #SEND bollox count in the media is:

HIGH

Take all the usual precautions.

[SEN Struggle @SENstruggle]

@troutmaskrepli2 @2tubies @StarlightMcKenz No, because SEND Managers already unlawfully do this is in the majority of LA’s across the country and are lucky to still be employed! The idea of this thread is about rewarding those who increase provision not abuse others by taking it away!

@asdfriendly @IPSEAcharity @sos_sen I wouldn’t use SENDIAS. Wouldn’t trust anything LA related

[SEN Struggle @SENstruggle]

@Claire_R123 Option 3 feels like the likely scenario followed by a complaint from yourself and some silly excuse in response!

[SEN Struggle @SENstruggle]

@SEND_PLIGHT It took 2 weeks and 2 days and got it by email but this was 2018 and the stats have got dramatically worse since then!

[SEN Struggle @SENstruggle]

@troutmaskrepli2 @bjpren You could substitute the words; shameful, ridiclous or disrespectful for justifying a % on a child/young persons EHCP!

[SEN Struggle @SENstruggle]

@Miss_Snuffy This approach of always believe adults and never believe children was adopted in Rotherham. I will leave you to use Google and uncover the devastating impact this had on families!
