The special educational needs system is financially unsustainable, the National Audit Office warns.
Families of children with special education needs and disabilities have lost confidence in a system that "often falls short" and is failing to improve children’s outcomes, the public-spending watchdog says.
“I was so relieved - but when I gave it to the school, there was no real additional support,” Mrs Dyson, from Huddersfield, says. “I find doctors don’t speak to schools, schools don’t speak to health professionals,” Mrs Dyson says. The rainbow room in her school has places for 20 children with an education, health and care plan , to learn through play and sensory activities.
The report says many special schools around the country are full - and together, they are supporting an extra 9,500 students.
