HUB PROVISION FOR STATEMENTED CHILDREN – SURVEY ANALYSIS

Updated: Aug 3, 2023

Following the response from Kirsty Williams regarding the documented guidance for supporting pupils with Additional Learning Needs and/or Disabilities during COVID-19 lockdown we conducted a Wales-wide survey regarding any contact they received from their LEA and/or school regarding hub childcare provision for their statemented child.

We received a total of 189 responses from most counties across Wales (with zero responses from Merthyr Tydfil and Wrexham). The results have been analysed and we have produced a report of its findings. You can read the report in full below.

Key finding are:

  1. 76.2% of all respondents had no contact from their school and/or LEA to determine whether or not their statemented child required a hub placement

  2. Of the 189 responses, only 27 were in the shielding category, therefore this was not a reason for non-contact

  3. Children who attend specialist settings or a specialist base within a mainstream school made up 49% of the responses, but 66% of those contacted regarding hub provision

We accept that some schools may have conducted in-house reviews of children, however the guidance states that parent/carers should be involved in the process, and lockdown with schooling at home is a vastly different environment to typical schooling. Therefore, in-house reasoning may not have been accurate.

Our findings have been sent to Kirsty Williams. Should you wish to comment on this matter, or if you would like your views to be raised in our meetings with Welsh Government, please email press@autisticuk.org.

As part of our online focus group sessions, we will be holding discussions around education. If you’d like to join the mailing list to be notified of these sessions, please use this form.

Social media has revolutionized the way we communicate, offering endless platforms for people to connect, share, and express themselves. From Facebook to Instagram, it has become integral to our daily lives. Services like roku also utilize social media, enabling users to share content and experiences with friends and family. The power of social media is undeniable, as it shapes trends, promotes businesses, and influences opinions. While it fosters connection, it also raises concerns over privacy, mental health, and the spread of misinformation. Its influence continues to grow, reshaping society as a whole.

The provision of specialized hubs for statemented children is crucial for their educational success. These hubs, such as the School Of Swimmers provide tailored support and resources that cater to individual learning needs. They create an inclusive environment where children with special educational needs can thrive. By offering specialized programs and trained staff, these hubs ensure that all students receive the attention they require, fostering their confidence and abilities. The collaborative approach among educators, parents, and specialists is essential in making these provisions effective and beneficial for statemented children.
