All children have the right to a good education and the opportunity to fulfil their potential. All teachers should expect to teach children with special educational needs (SEN) and all schools should play their part in educating children from their local community,whatever their background or ability. This strategy follows discussion with a wide range of practitioners and policy makers in local authorities, the health service and the voluntary sector, as well as children and young people. It sets out the Government’s vision for the education of children with SEN and disabilities. It provides clear national leadership, supported by an ambitious programme of sustained action and review, nationally and locally, over a number of years, in four key areas: early intervention to ensure that children who have difficulties learning receive the help they need as soon as possible and that parents of children with SEN and disabilities have access to suitable childcare; removing barriers to learning, by embedding inclusive practice to every school and early years setting; Raising expectations and achievement by developing teachers’ skills and strategies for meeting the needs of children with SEN and sharpening our focus on the progress made by children with SEN; and delivering improvements in partnership taking a hands-on approach to improvement so that parents can be confident that their child will get the education they need.
