October is ADHD Awareness Month. To think of ADHD only as poor concentration, impulsiveness or hyperactivity is to trivialise what can be a very debilitating difference in Neuro cognitive capacity. Identified early, treated & educated how to manage it can transform & ‘enable’ you
Lots on education in today’s budget. Not sure the solution for #SEND lies in creating more special school places, though. Let’s support mainstream schools to be more inclusive, invest in specialist expertise & ensure young people in FE get their fair share of high needs funding.
Happy Sunday!

Did an interview with Boris Johnson in Cheadle this morning. The @seashelltrust previously signed a letter saying children's services are at 'breaking point' - so I asked about that. Not sure we really got anywhere to be honest, but here it is @GranadaReports:
The long awaited report. After 18 months and hundreds of pieces of evidence, this is a damning and comprehensive picture of how ambitious intentions failed to be realised.. for post-16, the headlines are....1/12
