Debate

Special Educational Needs: Dyscalculia

Contribution

My Lords, we know that some children face real challenges in maths, particularly those with dyscalculia and other special educational needs. That is why we are supporting schools through our national maths hubs as well as improving inclusivity and expertise in mainstream schools. Our core professional development offer, including the initial teacher training and early-year framework, and leadership and SENCO NPQs, provides evidence-based training which supports the workforce to meet the needs of all pupils.
