Many children with SEND are being failed. Some families can wait months or even years for support, leaving children without the education they are legally entitled to and causing long-term harm.

Thousands of SEND children are affected by this. We call for accountability and an urgent, independent investigation into systemic failings in SEND provision, to hold authorities to account and deliver real change for children and families.

Government response
