After reading this piece in @schoolsweek.bsky.social by @bennewmark.bsky.social, I'm hurtling towards the conclusion that schools should be legally exempt from following interventions listed in an EHCP if they are not backed by high-quality evidence.

What’s drains school leaders?

As a school leader in a school in England this feels bang on.
