About this episode

<p>This episode isn’t about us.</p><p>It’s about you.</p><p>We asked families to share where they’ve been failed by the SEND system. What came back was overwhelming.</p><p>Draft EHCPs left open for months.<br />Support written into plans but never delivered.<br />Children kept “on roll” with no education.<br />Operational failures that destroyed trust.<br />Teenagers saying they’d rather be dead than go back to school.</p><p>These aren’t isolated stories.<br />The patterns are repeating across the country.</p><p>With SEND reform on the horizon, we’re asking a simple question:</p><p>If the system already isn’t delivering what’s legally required, what happens next?</p><p>If you recognise yourself in this episode, you’re not alone.</p>
