In just over a week’s time, I’m taking a group of parents to the Department for Education to meet former MP, Lee Scott, who has been asked by the Education Secretary, Nicky Morgan, to carry out a review into the SEND reforms.
Mr Scott has a history of being involved in autism and special needs and is Patron of the UK Autism Foundation. He’s been appointed to gather views, especially of parents and young people, and to focus on schools and colleges. The evidence he gathers will form a report for Mrs Morgan.
He already has lots of recent evidence from several quarters including Amy Skipp’s research and the recent EHCP figures. He’s speaking to other groups of course, but SNJ has been asked to bring some parents to meet him for a round-table session.
Mr Scott wants to hear the different experiences of as many parents as possible, so I’m asking you today to send your recent experiences of the new SEND system using the form below.
Note: The Labour party also has a review underway, so you could always submit your views there at the same time – write them once and paste them here and to Labour’s review!
