Demonstration Against Cuts in Special Education

Wednesday 26th June 6:00pm - 7:00pm at the Town Clock on the Crescent: The Special Needs Parents Association is calling all parents to come and support each other in a demonstration against further reductions in children’s Resource Hours. The reduction now stands at an overall 25% hit since the first cut in 2011. There has been a decrease of 15% in the specialist teaching hours allocated to all children with more moderate to severe levels of special needs, with a further 10% cut to those essential teaching hours expected from this September. Talk to other parents in your school, spread the word, share transport and join us next Wednesday.
