Bridget Phillipson, a government minister, commended Becontree Primary School in Dagenham during a speech at the Association of School and College Leaders' conference. Highlighting the importance of inclusive education, she referred to the school's unit dedicated to pupils with autism spectrum disorder, emphasizing the benefits of high standards for children with special educational needs (SEN). The school's efforts received praise from Barking and Dagenham Council, which noted its exceptional support for children with disabilities, showcasing a successful model of integration and mainstream schooling for SEN students.
Children and young people with SEN, along with disadvantaged children, have the most to gain from high and rising standards. A classroom that caters to all is a strength.
One father told me about his daughter at Becontree Primary School, which has a SEN unit for children with autism spectrum disorder. His daughter moving into a mainstream school gave him faith that she'll be able to achieve as an adult.
