Educate, Don’t Segregate – Online Rally
Disabled People’s Organisations, activists, parliamentarians and supporters are uniting to oppose government agenda that increases segregation in education.
Join the Rally for Inclusive Education
Together, we are demanding an education system that values Inclusive Education and the rights of all Disabled people.
We demand an end to:
- Building new special schools and SEN Units
- Delaying the School’s White Paper on SEND reform
- Funding structures favouring segregated schooling
- Cuts to SEND resources in mainstream schools
- The use of force, restraint and seclusion in educational settings
- Systemic barriers that exclude Disabled people
- Government failing to uphold the UNCRPD commitment to Inclusive Education
