If it's all non statutory non binding optional fluffy guidance that does help but doesn't do anything drastic like helping....
I'm increasingly thinking heavy paperwork needs to be required to socially transition a pupil, all signed, named staff, copies filed with the LA, a big process with a lot of practical accountability for the adults involved. Considering how much bumph has to be filled out to take six children to the park across the road for ten minutes in a lesson, or to get additional staffing support for a child with serious SEND why is this taken so much less seriously? The paperwork burden would slow this down, the accountability might make adults think, the process and requirement of evidencing how that decision was reached and signed to say the adults involved have considered the risks and possible negative impacts might make adults a bit less keen to rush into this. And the paperwork would then provide the necessary evidence for the kid to later sue the living daylights out of the people and authority involved if they come to regret the situation they were helped into.
Considering how some of these kids may come to be affected, the compensation involved may not just be a gesture, it may be badly needed income for someone made too ill and incapacitated before they reached adulthood to be able to earn a living.
