Learning Needs and Difficulties Among Children of Primary School Age: definition, identification, provision and issues 5/2

Cambridge Primary Review image

This is an interim report that has been published as part of the primary review.

The report surveys published research and other evidence on the following:

  • Regulation of the field: legislation, policy and practice
  • The prevalence of children with special educational needs (SEN)
  • Attitudes, discrimination and bias
  • Support for children with special educational needs
  • Approaches to teaching
  • Collaborative and multi-agency working
  • SEN and exclusion
  • Evaluating provision

The report notes that this is a highly contested and convoluted area involving strong pressure groups and government initiatives.

This report is reviewed on the TTRB SEN Sub portal.
