Question: What support is available for young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and how are young people taught about SEND?
Educating teens about Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) is important for inclusion of everyone in education settings and our communities. Most education of teenagers about SEND is provided by schools. Youth Forums and other youth groups play a role in developing young peoples’ knowledge about SEND.
