For too many, the system is just not working. Our research with letuslearntoo exposed that many families with disabled children are being forced to pay for services privately.

We'll be launching a new campaign soon on the GreenPaper to push for a fairer system.

Fascinating decision of the Supreme Court of BC (Canada), allowing a parent to be joined to a disabled child’s human rights claim to argue they had been discriminated against through a school’s alleged failures to make accommodations for the child bccourts.ca/jdb-txt/sc/22/…

Why does any conversation on that suggests delivering loving, respectful, compassionate boundaries without fear, threats, punishments = no safety + anarchy in schools? Why does a rights respecting neuro-scientific approach = no structure or safety in those opposing?

How do we ensure every neuro-divergent child reaches their potential?

If you think about, it begins with you and your attitude to difference and change

I know of two families with autistic loved ones who needs are complex and profound.

Both families have been let down by their LAs. Apparently it is down to money.

Why is that tired excuse always used when it comes to disabled people?

Would it suit those LAs if the person died?

All children of compulsory school age are legally entitled to receive a suitable full-time education. Schools cannot place children on a part-time timetable, save in exceptional circumstances to meet a pupil’s individual needs.

This is not news to us.
For our families, this hasn't been news for a few years.
But why is there not an outcry?
Do people -specifically do MPs - actually have to be in the situation where their own teen is suicidal to care?
Being in this situation changes everything for a family

A reminder that 2000+ and people are languishing in inadequate private mental health hospitals.

Many are abused and some sadly die.

Even the EHRC doesn’t appear to care

Good heavens. This is hideous. I’d put good money on each of these parents struggling with disproportionately high vulnerabilities, disadvantage, needs. Criminalising these parents will not change their circumstances or change their child’s absences. 😞 lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/20003864.…

What is neurodiversity? The way we frame it today will change over time I am sure. This is my take on it today. It has changed even in the last few years. Respectful Debate is good.

: “Wow. Early Help really know how to make things worse. Does anybody know what qualifications they need to do this job? They are making recommendations which directly contradict the advice of the specialist Autism & Social Communication Team.” 1/2

Fact: Every day 3 people with a learning disability are dying avoidably in NHS hospitals. My brother was healthy but never taken to hospital screening appts or when he was seriously ill. They didn't even provide him with a doctor when he was sick. His care provider was the NHS.
