What the petition asks
Specialist provision is limited in this country meaning too many children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) are being let down and are missing out on an education that they have a right to.
With more and more children being diagnosed with autism / ADHD etc all mainstream schools should offer specialist provision.
No child should be denied the right to an education nor be required to travel 10 or more miles a day just to get to an alternative provision, when there are schools in the area which could supply specialist provision if supported to do so. The Government needs to step up and be a voice for these children so they get the education they need and want.
