What the petition asks

Providing more funding for not only SEND schools, but also Mainstream with SEN children learning there also.
It is extremely important to provide the right tools and education to SEN children, their teachers and peers to be aware of what signs to look out for to make sure everyone is navigating each other correctly. To expand knowledge on debilitating, non physical disabilities in schools (especially mainstream) to prevent bullying and misunderstanding. Encourage parents of SEN to feel their children are safe and understood.
