Today @DanCardenMP asked the government a crucial question on support for SEND children, whilst paying tribute to the brilliant work of our @LivLawClinic🌟
Children with #SEND in more deprived areas are less likely to be identified compared with similar children from more affluent areas.
I asked the Government what action it will take to close this gap so that children in constituencies such as mine get the support they need.
