59 weeks and still no EHCP however Leeds have at least agreed to issue one which is a relief. Our children deserve better than this and delays effect every single child, not just the child waiting.

Another catastrophic and damning report on the Tories legacy.

This time in how SEND failures in England puts children's development years behind.

Do not EVER forget what the Tories have done to this country.

Utter gibberish as usual. "Family GPs" don't sign off SEND plans or disability benefits.

Leader of the National Education Union Daniel Kebede has called Nigel Farage out as a "poundshop Donald Trump" - and he's extremely concerned about what a Reform UK government would do to education.

Farage has since said he would "go to war" with the Union.

Quiet weekend at home this weekend before returning to the East Riding to help with the Hull and East Riding Mayoral Campaign. It's been a total pleasure to support a campaign in my home town of Beverley. Beverley Youth Council gave me the confidence to get involved in politics afterall

Sheer incompetence leading to immense distress for our school community. I'm immensely proud of this school which has continued to function despite repeated failures from Leeds City Council.
