Should I be worried about Labour's Send scheme changes affecting my kid's school support?

Sounds like there are some changes coming to Labour's Send support and parents are apparently rushing to lock in help before things change. If you've got a child with special educational needs, this might actually matter for what support they get going forward.

Get the specifics directly from your child's school or your local authority rather than relying on parent forums - policies shift and what applies to one area might not apply to yours. The "rush to lock in help" thing is real enough that it's worth checking your child's current SEND plan to see what's actually documented, since transitions between policy frameworks can affect how support gets delivered. I'd be skeptical of blanket claims about what's changing without seeing the actual guidance from your local council, because the devil's usually in those details and different provisions affect different kids differently.
