There’s a worryingly persistent narrative in government & LAs that the SEND crisis is the result of parents/carers being too demanding.

Our new blog post is a reminder that parents/carers are doing nothing more than expecting LAs to follow the law.

Could you use your financial skills to help children and young people with SEND get the support they need? We're looking for a treasurer to join our board.

Interesting parliamentary question from @bphillipsonMP on whether @educationgovuk has assessed impact on children & young people with SEND of local authorities going 'bankrupt'. 1/2 https://t.co/5Fb5nJce8n

Over 30 lawyers have joined us in calling on the Govt to abandon proposals in the #SENDReview Green Paper.

Read our letter to the Secretary of State for Education @GillianKeegan: https://t.co/AC0s1ey0pk

The system doesn’t need to be reformed again. It needs to be made to work.

[IPSEA @IPSEAcharity]

We want to say a huge #ThanksToYou to @TNLComFund for their grant towards enhancing IPSEA's free helpline services over the next 3 years. Thank you for supporting children with #SEND and their families to access free legal advice.

... a historic #probonocosts order of £130k. @Access2JusticeF @TobyBrownUK @ClareATJF I think this is more than double the previous highest order? More nerdery here: https://t.co/JGUxltF56i

[IPSEA @IPSEAcharity]

We have submitted a detailed response to the #SENDReview consultation. We believe the proposed reforms will, if implemented, have an overwhelmingly negative impact on children & young people with SEND.
