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.

Review and reform education system to support neurodivergent children in schools
I want the government to review and reform mainstream education so neurodivergent children are understood, supported, and included — with trained teachers, sensory-friendly classrooms, proper funding, and accountability under the Equality and Disability Acts.
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.
Guardian article on neurodiversity and dyslexia
A link to a Guardian opinion piece about dyslexic thinking and neurodiversity in scientists.
Mandate all teachers in mainstream schools receive SEN & mental health training
Fund mandatory SEN and mental health training for all teachers. We are concerned that many children with special educational needs are being failed, as mainstream staff often lack the skills and qualifications to support pupils with social, emotional and mental health needs.
Introduce children's rights into the primary and secondary curriculum
Thousands of child's rights breaches have been found in the UK. Without the knowledge children do not know when their rights are being breached. The government have a duty to protect children's rights under the UNCRC, but time and time again children are failed without the knowledge to confront it.
