Introduce lessons on neurodivergence to the curriculum for all children
Every child should have the chance to be understood. I want the curriculum to require that all children be taught about neurodivergence. This should include teaching on Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia (DCD), Dyscalculia, Tourette's Syndrome, and sensory processing disorder, to name a few examples.
Fund and require trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming support in schools
Fund and require schools to provide trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming education in schools. This should include understanding threat responses, co-created sensory tools, protective behaviour policies, and ring-fenced money for early intervention and counselling, and training for staff.
Review suitability of NHS mental health services for Neurodivergent people
At present, I believe people with Autism, ADHD and other Neurodivergent conditions do not receive appropriate Mental Health treatment and care they need and deserve through NHS Mental Health services. All NHS Mental Health services must be suitable for Neurodivergent people.
Review ways for children with ECHPs to go to mainstream schools and colleges
Mainstream schools and colleges often hesitate to accept a child with an EHCP. We want these schools to actually give these children a chance because it can be really hard to get into education with an ECHP. They can lose time waiting to be put into a school or college.
Review guidance on school behaviour policy to support mental health & inclusion
We call on the Government to launch a review of the statutory guidance on school behaviour policies which looks into ending any punitive measures and investing in restorative, trauma-informed approaches.
