Fund additional support for children who may have SEND

Closed 32 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to fund additional support for families with children who may have special educational needs or disabilities (SEND), and are waiting for or going through an assessment process.
Families whose children are being assessed for, or awaiting assessment for, special educational needs or disabilities (SEND), can miss out on vital support for their child. We believe these children are being failed, and that more support is needed, so that children don't miss out while they are waiting to be assessed.
