6 simple questions on reforming SEND services

We have to demand a fairer and more just system of support for disabled children and families.

The government is looking to reform disabled children’s services through a set of proposed policies in the ‘SEND Green Paper’.

However, the government’s plans contain several worrying proposals that could further weaken the rights of families with disabled children and make it even harder for them to access support.

We need to ensure the government knows how these policies could impact families.

The government’s official consultation contains 22 long, quite complicated questions. As part of the #SENDABetterMessage campaign, with the help of parent carers and charities, the Disabled Children’s Partnership (DCP) have simplified the consultation into 6 simple questions on the most urgent points.
