...do it with the confidence of a 4-year-old in a Batman t-shirt
Seeing this quote a lot at the moment. I love it. Because it's so true.
Children should be able to retain that confidence through school - many of them can and do. Thriving, as we want our children to. But many children with SEND don't. And then when they start to struggle with school attendance - for a multitude of reasons - their confidence suffers further. Their mental health is impacted. Adding prosecution into the mix is a sure-fire way to heap additional pressure on families that just don't need it.
How much are we all missing out on due to SEND children not receiving the support they need in school? What is the hidden cost of their exclusion?
This world needs all its superheroines and superheroes.
