Include Me TOO

Impact of SEND Reforms on Black, Asian and minoritised disabled children, young people and their families

Include Me TOO, Black SEN Mamas and South Asian SEN Mamas have organised an important event for parents and carers from our diverse SEND communities regarding the SEND Reforms impact on Black, Asian and minoritised disabled children, young people and their families.

Despite the growing evidence of racial disparity in SEND, particularly as far as being disproportionately impacted by inequality, barriers to support, exclusion and lack of representation, Black, Asian and minoritised disabled children and young people are STILL being overlooked within conversations around SEND reform.

Following the joint letter to DfE requesting an extension for the SEND Reforms this event will is an important conversation on the impact of SEND reforms on our communities and why our voices must be heard within the future of SEND policy and provision.

This is an interactive virtual event, aimed at ensuring the voices from racisalised communities are being platformed, in conversations surrounding SEND. We strongly encourage SEND parents/carers, teachers, specialists and allies to attend.
We aim to explore what can we do collectively to influence better futures for our Black, Asian and minoritised disabled children and young people.

Discussions will cover:

➡️ Do the SEND reforms risk disproportionately affecting Black, Asian and minoritised disabled children and young people?

➡️ Black, Asian and minoritised disabled children and young people have faced inequality within the SEND system what needs to change

➡️ Why it is important to ensure our voices are heard and views considered within the SEND Reforms Proposal.

➡️How can we collectively address the barriers and challenges for our advocacy, inclusion, representation to protect the futures of our disabled children and young people.

Do join us and attend this important event as our intersectional experiences continue to be overlooked.
