Very interesting and thought provoking! I feel what you are saying is - ‘now (urgently) is the time to make a stand for what you believe in?!’
Hey you!

Are you on your lunch break?

Do you have a spare 5 minutes?

Do you work in education?

Are you concerned that, despite all the good talking we do about good things, everything keeps getting worse?

Then give my new blog post on edpsy a read!

🌟New blog post

Does consultation leave EPs ready to meet the challenges we face in 2025? From rampant inequality and austerity to exclusionary politics.

How do we ensure our practice isn't just all talk?

Sean considers this and more in this excellent read: edpsy.org.uk/blog/2025/al...

1. The ambivalence of people like me on SEND reform must be confusing and might even appear pig-headed.

On the one hand pointing out how broken the current system is and on the other appearing resistant to radical reform that might improve things.

The edited reality version missing from the news!
I'll edit:

"Nearly 20 councils at risk of insolvency due to a decade of austerity, rising citizen poverty levels, a developmentally inappropriate curriculum, an exclusionary and within child cultural understanding of SEND, and a decimated teaching workforce"

#edpsychs first post alert! I was wondering if anyone phrased outcomes in an EHCNA that are for the adults to achieve in support of meeting a child’s needs?!
