Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 March 2026

Debate

Special Educational Needs: Dyscalculia

Contribution

I will repeat what I have said, and emphasise that the national inclusion standards cover all areas. We need to have universal approaches as well as the tools and approaches to identify and respond to the needs. Of course, dyscalculia is an important consideration, as are all the other conditions our young people face. That is how we are moving forward—to make sure that every young person’s needs are recognised and dealt with in an appropriate way, in order to give them the absolute maximum support to enable them to succeed.
