We have an ongoing commitment to ensure expertise in SEND is available to every school and setting across the UK.

It is critical that we break down the barriers that impact children and young people’s participation in education – particularly for those with SEND and learning differences.

Our membership is free to all UK individuals*, so that we can work across early years, schools, further education and wider settings to help ensure that all education practitioners are given the information and support required so that all children and young people can thrive.
