๐ŸงตOur journey through the education system the last 25yrs has changed how I view not just the system itself but also the disparity in how each individual involved throughout that time has treated my children & how each setting has identified/met needs has told its own story. 1/

Absolutely agree with you ๐Ÿ™Œ it also shows & teaches compassion & understanding of needs when approached from a celebrating progress & inclusion perspective doesnโ€™t it

Attendance awards can quietly punish kids who are sick or need extra support. Celebrating progress and inclusion helps every child feel they belong ๐Ÿค

Exactly this!!! Christ my youngest had several days off because school had no loo roll and so he could not go to the toilet! This resulted in a hospital trip with him impacted & constipated! @GLFSchools ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿซฃitโ€™s not right! Itโ€™s 2026 you should not be rewarded for good health!

I would have never had one back in the days and I was an "academic" student. But life is life. Sickness, family issues, deaths, etc.

SO sick of this twisted narrative ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜ก
Three negative behaviour incidents in five days. For what? An untucked shirt. How exactly does that affect anyoneโ€™s education? Since when did policing uniforms become more important than teaching children? And we wonder why so many children disengage from school.

SEND funding plan risks โ€˜penalisingโ€™ inclusive schools โ€œRaising the threshold without providing genuinely additional & clearly identifiable funding risks increasing schoolsโ€™ responsibilities withoutโ€ฆ the capacity or resources to meet themโ€ ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿซฃ tes.com/magazine/news/generaโ€ฆ

Our education authority has told teachers & students to "wear more clothes" as a result of increased heating bills. The same education authority who won't hold schools accountable for their rigid uniform policies that see children sanctioned for wearing an unbranded scarf.

Mums battle for SEND school places โ€œthey don't answer your phone calls anymore, they don't answer your emails anymore". This is far from unusual and always unacceptable. Council behaviour is the SEND reform thatโ€™s actually needed. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm0qโ€ฆ

Kids dying ๐Ÿ’” that's what's happening X. So many children are suffering, so many are secondary schl aged that do not get the vital support they need.

Great visual! The only thing I would add to this is that often people are a mix of both โค๏ธ #sensory #processing #autism #adhd

Before anyone starts to feel sympathy for the adults involved remember these are the type of people that do not feel sympathy for kids that make minor mistakes that breach policy. This is far from minor, this was an irrational decision on impulse, totally disproportionate too.
