Great SEN phrases of all time

[MareeyaDolores]

I want a nice list of those statements that rattle around my head, and hopefully someone else will post a reminder of the hall-of-fame quotes I've forgotten. Will add the author and date if I know (and please correct me if need be, or if two people have hatched the same great idea)

Don't waste valuable time assuming competent folk have it all under control. They probably don't.

meeting following refusal to assess SEN

"if he needed a statement, he'd already have it by now"

"if he needed a statement, he wouldn't need a funded one"

"your actual case officer would be here, but she isn't here"

lol at insanity's it's not the child who is stupid
and AnotherAlias, I really love number 3... spontaneous gobbledegook is hysterical (1 and 2 will be quotes from LA, transmitted on some course)

This week in a meeting a sentence from that professional which contained about 5 words of 4-5 syllables each and which meant nothing at all. It wasn't a cover up for something she didn't want to say directly or couldn't/wouldn't provide, it was just meaningless. I thought at the time 'must post that on this thread' but it was so nebulous that I have forgotten it now.

loved the education jargon generator, thank you mareeya
