Erm... How much do these charities have to pay to get photo ops with MPs?

Yep. What's *your* single issue?

This is the medical model of disability (which I'm happy to acknowledge is a good model for some disabled people, especially with chronic pain) whereas the social model puts the barriers squarely as a societal issue. In other words, let's remove the barriers to learning and belonging for all kids.

"We need to allow flexible learning schedules and adapt environments for sensory and emotional regulation to allow pockets of flow through the day." How? Because without that, the rest is theory... Where are the case studies? I can't build a DfE SEND and inclusion CPD based on that article...

When I was an infant teacher we'd be desperately asking for support for a child for 3 years, and then it would arrive in the juniors... 🤷

"Let's just be nice to all kids and teach them really well." The naivety in this is so delicious. Jim knows exactly what this means, in his schools. My interpretation 30 to 40 years ago might have led to quite different things going on in my classroom.

SEND training for schools: supporting every child to achieve and thrive | pop pop studio
The first SEND and inclusion materials from the DfE have landed. They haven't been received well.

"For me, this is where inclusion needs greater precision: not starting with a label or an outcome, but using the evidence we already have to understand the barrier and make the response equally precise." Cindy J Impey on LinkedIn lnkd.in/p/eCXdptm7

The TES account and password system is probably the worst I've ever encountered... Even with an account I'm bounced all over the place. Sigh. So many WCAG failures too...

Anyway, I know you're all knackered, but I can't build this CPD. I can only get the right people in the room, get the right people building the thing, if you all tell me what it is. So fill in the form, don't be shy...

Is it because doing a "working class" job left you with the creative capacity, and, with regulated hours, the time to read, paint, garden. Something that teaching, say, sucks from you???

Post your list of "all SEND conditions" here, it'd be a very useful taxonomy for all sorts of bits of my (intersection of tech and SEND management) work. Please and thank you. 😍

When I started teaching (almost 40 years ago) the Reception teacher had been there for 30 years. "How do you cope teaching the same thing all the time?" I asked. "There's always a child who needs an extra step to learn [perfectly obvious and simple thing]" How do we teach curiosity to teachers?

"We have to be relevant as well as outstanding. More pathways, not fewer. More choice, not less. Taking down barriers, not putting them up. Engaging, not disconnecting. Closing the gap between the classroom and work. Always high standards, but looking to the future, not the past." Lucy Powell

Also, 90% of councils publish their SEND strategies and OAP docs as PDFs, which are equally inaccessible.

I hope not. The evidence suggests that grammar schools are antithetical to social mobility. When you create grammars, you create secondary moderns. In Germany, working class and migrant heritage kids overwhelmingly go to Hauptschule. I really hope Labour's ideas don't lead us here in England.

I've been waiting for the DfE to come up with their "curriculum" for the hybrid send and inclusion training starting September 2027, since March... I'm not sure if we're going to be on the right track if this is what they're expecting, but with online (and maybe face to face) sessions too...

As for Yvette Cooper, it’s two months since I was promised a response from her, regarding my meeting with Streeting back in March, six months ago. They do it deliberately to anyone pursuing justice for themselves or their community, they want to wear us down so we disappear - one way or another.

I’m sick of the bullshit “sorry for your loss”letters I get from the politicians I engage with, the latest from Baroness Merron, Labour peer, who takes 6 pages to say nothing of value and who appears to prefer wilful ignorance and worship at the altar of Cass over genuine engagement with the facts.

You don't really need ai for cccsa (the text editor I built does these for a specific niche, without ai) But "wargaming" audience reaction is a great idea...

Every child deserves a broad, balanced, and high-quality education. We warned during the passage of the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Act that scrapping the academy-first rule without introducing any cap on faith-based admissions would reopen the door to now voluntary aided faith schools.
