This sold-out event in August brought together Portsmouth parents, carers, educators and local organisations to discuss how we can build a Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) system that truly works for every child.
Taking place at St George’s Church, the roundtable got local people to share their views on how they would like to see Government investment spent as well as what principles should underpin any reforms.
The Labour government has kickstarted engagement on plans to help more pupils with SEND have their needs met in local schools.
This Roundtable discussion will feed into these new plans to modernise the education system so that inclusion is at the very heart, and that every local school is able to meet children’s needs.
