statement for a child

[McHappyPants2012]

what does this mean, my son really struggles in school and he is also Austic.

I teach in the NE and we do receive funding for statements but what we get it a fraction of the actual cost to provide the provision, so the shortfall comes from the school budget (tens of thousands per statement) which means we can't fund other areas.

AS I said, there is literally no spare money in the pot here. Teachers, TAs, books and that's it. Am very sad that SEN provision varies so wildly. There is a woman trying to set up a Free School for high-functioning ASD here but no luck so far (and she's not a teacher so not sure I would be very hesitant to use).

I would be very happy to use

We only have one TA so we can fund SEN
