The minister's COMPLETE response was not available in the given transcript. The Minister thanked Pippa Heylings and others for raising important issues. She acknowledged the challenges faced by families in navigating SEND services and the emotional toll it takes on them, including parents having to give up their careers to support their children. The Government has already invested £1 billion into the high needs block funding formula and announced an additional £3 billion in capital for specialist places. They have also prioritised teacher training and continuous professional development related to SEND. The Minister assured that further reforms will be set out, including addressing early intervention, partnerships across local authorities, schools, and health services, and ensuring every child has the right to education within their community. She emphasised the need for strong accountability systems and support structures while recognising the financial pressure on councils with significant deficits. The Government will absorb SEND pressures within the overall departmental expenditure limit budget for 2028-29, avoiding local authorities funding these costs from general funds. We cannot continue to fail children with special educational needs and disabilities and their families, and we need to give the right resources to the teachers, teaching assistants and health professionals who are trying to support them every day. When we bring forward the schools White Paper, there will be a full consultation on the work we are setting out, and we have heard this evening, very powerfully, how important that work is. My commitment is to work in partnership with everyone who cares about this issue. I appreciate the opportunity to continue these conversations and to continue to talk about the work we are doing.
