What the petition asks
Put more money into schools to spend on help for children with disabilities and special educational needs. For example, this could include more counselling for children with ADHD and autism, and more teachers with the right skills and training to help children with learning disabilities.
This would help give these children the best start in life and give them the chance to achieve everything they want to. Children with disabilities often get put to the back, and left to struggle with learning and deal with emotions on their own. There’s not enough put into schools to help these children at the moment.
