Access to Educational Psychology shouldn’t depend on your postcode! Fund EP training, early intervention & EP time with early years, schools & families - not endless EHCP pipelines & one-off EP assessments. Respond to the consultation.#SENDcrisis #equity https://t.co/4K6D77gocP

On Question Time last night the Reform man said one in three Glasgow kids don’t speak English at home as if this is a problem . 60% of Manchester kids are bilingual, leading to one of the most successful school systems in the country, as reported in the Economist recently.

We've partnered with @contactfamilies to find out more about your experiences of getting support for your child’s SEN. How does your child/young person’s nursery, school or college support their needs if they don't have an EHC plan in place?
