More than 65,000 people sign ALLFIE’s petition

We’ve been blown away by the response to our petition on 38 Degrees: Don’t shut Disabled people out of mainstream education. You’re telling government clearly that they must provide the support Disabled children need to thrive in mainstream. Cuts which affect Disabled children’s equal participation in education are not acceptable.

A huge thank you to everyone who has signed. If you haven’t signed the petition yet, please sign and share it with friends and family.

Let's make it happen - sign the petition now. →

ALLFIE's work is more important than ever today.

In this era of cuts, Disabled children and young people's participation in mainstream education is suffering, but we're standing up for their right to be included.

Is your secondary school accessible?

Find out more about our research into school accessibility plans and how we’re using your experiences.

By law, schools should make accessibility plans to enable Disabled children and young people to access school facilities and make the most of their education.

We’ve been running focus groups and surveys with parents, education professionals and Disabled young people to establish how well these plans are working.
