Connect fully supports the recommendations in Angela Morgan's review of the implementation of additional support for learning legislation, and we are glad to see the Scottish Government’s acceptance of the majority of these. We welcome the Government’s Action Plan commitments to engaging with children and young people and their families. However, it is vital families get the support and respect they are entitled to, and that these calls for change do not fall by the wayside.
We submitted a paper for the Scottish Parliament's Education and Skills Committee ahead of its evidence session with Angela Morgan, including previously unpublished comments from parents of children with support needs from our lockdown surveys. You can read it here.
