Labour — Newcastle upon Tyne North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 October 2024

Debate

Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

Contribution

Early diagnosis and early intervention are known to significantly improve the opportunities and outcomes for children with special educational needs and disabilities, but one of the biggest challenges in this space is the battle that many families face with a system that is letting them down, and we are determined to change that.
