Early intervention isn’t optional

Our new policy paper: Early intervention, local flexibility: the role of part-time Alternative Learning Providers in SEND support.

The message is clear: 

• Support is coming too late 

• Families are being left to fight the system 

• Schools need stronger partnerships for early intervention

Flexible part-time specialist provision can:

• Prevent escalation 

• Reduce exclusions 

• Re-engage young people with learning

“If we get this right, we do more than improve education outcomes. We enable young people to contribute – to their communities, to the economy, and to their own futures.”
Jo Coombs, CEO, HorseWorld

This paper sets out practical recommendations based on conversations with local politicians, policy makers, schools, parents and specialist providers.

Because every child deserves the opportunity to achieve and thrive.
