The Government has just published its response to the Solving the SEND Crisis report, and there's a lot to take in.

There are real commitments here — more funding for early support, specialists going into schools, new national standards, and a clear acknowledgement that the current system is failing children and families. That matters.

But if you're a parent who's spent months (or years) navigating waiting lists, fighting for an EHCP, or being told your child doesn't quite meet the threshold — you'll know that announcements aren't the same as change on the ground.

We're reading through it carefully. The full link is below if you want to dig in yourself. And as always, if you need support right now, we're here — you don't have to wait for a reformed system to find your community.

💛 Have you noticed your child chewing sleeves, repeating movements, or seeking certain sensory behaviours?

What may look unusual to others is often a child's way of regulating emotions, processing sensory input, or finding calm in an overwhelming world.

In this carousel, we explore:
✨ What stimming is
✨ Why children stim
✨ When support may help
✨ Safe and supportive strategies for parents

Understanding stimming starts with understanding your child's needs — not trying to stop behaviours that may actually help them cope.
