Lost generation of Send children to leave school without the help they need, MPs warn

A LOST generation of children could leave school without receiving the help they need if action is not taken to address England’s “inequitable” special educational needs system, MPs have warned.
The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) said too many families are struggling to access the help their children with special educational needs and disabilities (Send) “desperately need.”
In a damning report, the committee said whether children receive support depends too much on their postcode, or how well families can navigate “an often chaotic and adversarial system.”
