Teachers and children need Teacher Assistants and Learning Support Assistants. We believe without vital help and support; teaching and education may suffer, which could have a detrimental effect on all children - not just the children with additional needs.

Provide more funding for children with SEN in schools
We want greater investment in schools/alternative provisions to make them accessible and inclusive for all.
Fund more training for teachers to support children with SEN
There should be more funding for more training and awareness around children with special educational needs. We believe there is a lack of understanding around special needs, and therefore a lack of understanding on how to support these children.
Increase funding to Local Authorities for home-educated children with safeguards
We want the Government to increase funding to local authorities so they can provide more funding to home-educated children. The funding should be conditional on parents submitting a clear education plan and providing regular updates to ensure this money is supporting the child’s learning.
Fund a new way to support young people with SEND in schools.
Update national policy and provide funding so schools and local authorities can offer hybrid learning (blended mainstream + therapeutic/vocational/community outreach) as a first-line alternative to full-time mainstream or exclusion/PRU, with clear safeguards and accountability.
Provide funding to subsidise school uniforms for all children
We want the Government to provide funding to subsidise free or significantly more affordable school uniforms for all school children to help families. We believe no child should be excluded or disadvantaged from education as their family can’t afford compulsory uniform.
