What messages do you have for today’s budget?
📣 The delay in White Paper is costing lives

📣 Schools had SEND tools & resources, these were staff, lost due to cuts.

📣 Free nursery care, but no school! over 111,000 children electively home educated, an increase of 50k in one year! Everyone has lost faith in education.

We are glad to hear that children are able to remain in their home county.

Closer to family, friends, their roots, most of all, the LA that is responsible can be involved in delivering needs, more closely.

The question is, how were the homes in this county closed down, without following the democratic process?

'It's all about improving outcomes for our children, and ensure we can bring more children back into the county'
