Fund more support for children with SEN & allow term-time holidays

Closed 80 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to fund more schools for children with SEN, and activity provision. I want more school places. I want leave granted e.g. One weeks term time leave for SEN children. I want more places e.g. Play centres, activities for SEN children after school.
Children with SEN can find holidays too busy. They may not be able to access places in busy periods. We think there should be other options for children during term time to have a break and go on holiday. It’s not fair that other children have a break but SEN children may not have the same opportunities.

Play centres can be miles away, and there isn’t enough school provision.
