Require all children’s play centres to provide two dedicated SEN sessions a week

Closed 170 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to require all children’s play centres to provide at least two dedicated SEN sessions per week — one on a weekday and one at the weekend. We want them to be held at reasonable, accessible times to support neurodivergent children and their families.
SEN children deserve safe, inclusive spaces to play without fear of judgment or sensory overload. Many families are excluded due to loud environments and inaccessible session times. We think that regular SEN sessions would ensure equality, regulation, and a sense of belonging.
