I've seen that a couple of times, a few people "complaining" that they can see it in active convos. COnfusing me as well.

They do sometimes cross over, though. J's SN cause him to have SEN. It's unlikely that anyone with a SN child will have no issues with education-related stuff, so it's natural that SEN issues come onto here too.

yes I get that but i have seen the topic called SEN(not having a dig at anyone by the way just chatting)
I know that the too are linked if your child has sn, but a child with SEN might not have SN iynwim

Must admit, i never read the SEN topic, but always read/post here.
Maybe people just think ther is a bigger audience here or covering both will get heir q's answered.

I don't mind in the slightest tbh. I only ever come on here so would miss anyone posting about SEN anywhere else

I don't think I am putting this accross very well
I have c&P this from a post on sn..(no dig at the person that posted it)
"the SEN board makes the national papers"

they were talking about this topic, this is one of a few times that I have seen this topic refered to as the SEN topic.
hope that makes sense

Oh I see, I guess some people are just getting a bit confused with the initials. I STILL get confused with all the shortened names, initials and terminology even now!!

I guess they see the words special needs appearing in both titles and assume best to post it under SN.

Oh I don't know, ramble ramble, PMSL!!
