@JulesLayton1 @MrBoothY6 Can you recommend any further info/ reading etc please? We desperately need to improve our playtimes but lacking inspiration!

[Maeve K Sweeney @teachstudylive]

@JulesLayton1 @MrBoothY6 @Kathrine_28 I’m keen to know this too. Is it the equipment or a programme? Thanks!

[Maeve K Sweeney @teachstudylive]

@elchewhite I’m so, so sorry. This is heartbreaking.

[Maeve K Sweeney @teachstudylive]

@sencochat I fully agree! Moving to specialist provision has been such a fantastic experience for me.

This is so true.

It's *insanely* difficult in this country to be an effective parent and worker unless you

Are in a relationship
Have parents who can help
Have friends who can help
Are comparatively wealthy
Are always healthy
Are living within a ten minute walk of your kid's school

You know the country is f*cked when a parking space earns more than a postie working for Royal Mail.

@fwatson0705 @AnnaGittins1 @gfreeman2012 I’m met with the response to hold an emergency review, which I do and then they say we haven’t got enough evidence to increase funding and nothing changes. But the existing EHCP is not funded properly in the first place! Should I be costing it all out &then what would you do?

[Maeve K Sweeney @teachstudylive]

@fwatson0705 @AnnaGittins1 @gfreeman2012 I feel like I need to have a more formal way of doing this. How would you appeal to secretary of state? I usually email my LA but get nowhere. I’m not sure of the best way to appeal.

We have 12 children arriving from Ukraine in our village soon. Any good ideas to support them? They’ll start at the local school, but wondered if anyone has experience of maybe running youth clubs, after school groups etc? Thanks!

@JayRawlingsAPPE Thanks Jay! Great advice!
