The Tories have left behind a huge crisis in SEND education.
Hundreds of thousands of children are suffering as a result and their families are often left totally desperate.
I've secured a debate in Parliament next week on the SEND crisis.
Let me know your experiences below.

He’s the youngest, not the first and as such has been awarded the Guinness Record. I believe Chris did run the London Marathon and Lloyd inherited the iconic 321 from him. He’s raising money for @SteppingStoneDS .
