@MartinBarrow@hackerhowroyd Quite clearly didnt say all, I said there is good and bad homes in both and I dont like a 1-4 ratio which i see a lot of currently.
@MartinBarrow@hackerhowroyd Im sorry but im not sure why what I said needed you to bite. We are all entitled to our say. We are both putting the child first with differing views. I have written a therapeutic model, fostered and now complete education & therapy for children in care. My views are just my own
@MartinBarrow@hackerhowroyd We shouldn't run our homes just to fit in with ofsted. A snapshot of a school and homes over 2 days does not negate hard work. Im sure you have been in an inspection so you know what I mean. And sometimes moving a child away gives them chance to recover...
@hackerhowroyd@MartinBarrow Im not sure Local Authority homes are the answer. A lot are less than 1-1 and sometimes are 1 staff to 4. How does that give each child what they deserve? As a fostercarer and educator of children in the care system I see some good work by staff from private as well as LA
Does anyone know about recoup regs? @gfreeman2012
I have a child in limbo whilst we argue between foster child who lives in one county and the belonging authority refusing to pay for school. Poor child not in a school whilst the argument goes on. What regs trump the others?
@garethkthomas Talking about how children should be treated in school isn't about education and some teaching professionals need a better understanding of managing children with trauma so dont be quiet. I am a carer myself, train on attachment and run an educational provision.
@MartinBarrow@JakeBenRichards@politicshome Absolutely its not. How many parents move their child from a school where they are being bullied? Quite a lot they don't always wait till the bullies are managed.
@MartinBarrow@JakeBenRichards@politicshome From someone who fosters, a fresh start away from the mentality of others influencing you can be the answer. For some I agree not the right move but just like children in the care system, one size doesn't fit all. I'm not saying they should forcibly be removed either.
@Camelgod3 @SpcialNdsJungle I think they believe you can't have Autism and a mental health issue it can only be one or the other. I have referred so many young people and its just put down to their Autism and discharged
