Armed Forces Community APPG's submission to the SEND Consultation: Service Children

As Chair of the APPG for the Armed Forces Community, I’ve submitted the APPG’s response to the Government’s SEND consultation following engagement with Service families, charities, researchers and the Armed Forces Families Federations. 

The reforms have real potential, but the experiences shared with us showed clearly that Service children face distinct challenges that must be reflected in the final system - particularly around mobility, school transitions, and continuity of support. 

This submission sets out practical recommendations to help ensure SEND reform works for Armed Forces families wherever military life takes them. 👇
