Does the education system fail children/young people with special needs or physical disabilities? How?
My school let me down badly. From year 7-9, I was at a small country school who installed a ramp and had someone pushing me around, they sent me work and helped me to do my SATS. I then moved to a bigger school and i was promised all sorts, i was told i could have help, my work would be sent to me when i was in hospital and when i was in too much pain to come to school. They said all my lessons would be down stairs, and they had electric doors. So, i wasn’t worried at all about going to the school. However, on my first day my form room was upstairs, so they had to move the class down (much to the disgust of the other students) they moved it to a room that had a step to get into so they had to move again. I never really fitted in with my form because of the hassle i caused, they wrote me off as weird. The school was on a hill and really spread out so it was impossible for me to get around myself, when i asked for help i was told “no you cant have help your 15 and should be independent,
