Over half of teachers say special educational needs support is down on five years ago
General secretary of NASUWT Patrick Roach said the government has inherited a Send system on its knees
“At local level, it’s different."
MORE than half of teachers say the level of support for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities (Send) has decreased in the last five years, a survey suggests.
Only 5 per cent of teachers say that the pupils with Send they teach always receive the educational support to which they are legally entitled, according to a poll by NASUWT teaching union.
The findings have been released ahead of the union’s two-day annual conference in Liverpool over Easter, which starts tomorrow.
