Educational Psychologists and relevant organisations have written to the Department for Education (DfE) asking for a new approach to the SEND system. The full letter can be found below.

They are asking for: “a repositioning of ‘SEND’ within the wider education system so that it is no longer viewed as a ‘bolt-on’ or afterthought as it is now. Rather, those children and young people who need something additional and/or different to access education must be considered as central to all educational policy”.
