Petition Make diagnosis enough for children with SEN to get the help and provision needed

Throughout the UK there are thousands of children struggling in mainstream school. My son is one of many. He is Aspergers/ADHD. He needs a specialist provision and one on one support. He and all of the other children are made to fail the system before they qualify for help. Something needs to change

More details

* Diagnosis should be enough for a specialist provision
* Support should be given immediately to children whose parents choose for them to stay in mainstream
* Children have to fail in mainstream before they can get assistance, the system is failing our children
* EHCP process takes too long
* Funding needs to be increased
* We need more specialist schools
* ALL children deserve the right to an education in a setting that suits their needs.
* SEN Children need SEN support
