Session Synopsis
In this session, Brian will explore the ways that the Covid-19 pandemic has unmasked and exacerbated existing social, educational and economic inequalities across society, with the profile of digital poverty and exclusion being a considered focus in SEND provision and education as a whole.
Brian will be challenging sector understanding of social-economic barriers in reality for children, young people and their parents and carers as an act of civic duty, courage and care.
In recognising how to overcome these barriers and reduce the digital divide, we can highlight lived experiences in ensuring that equity of access is available to all.
