Parents of special educational needs children could get care budgets

I don't know if anyone else has seen this article:

I just wondered what everyone thought.  My initial reaction is it could be a good thing and are they finally admitting that SEN children should not be in mainstream school.  OR is this actually something to worry about.

Parents
  • Is it just me - or is this country getting worse?!?!?! we mustn't be racist, equal opportunities for all, blah blah blah...(i hasten to add, i am not racist in any way and agree with these points) and yet, they are seemingly suggesting 'our children' are now segregrated from mainstream school, or giving us money and leaving us to 'get on with it'.

    I can see how it would help some people, but it's stinking of discrimination.....
