We are such "special" people, aren't we, Mumsnet and Nick Clegg?

Ofsted says nearly half a million children in England, labelled with special needs have been wrongly diagnosed. Jo Shuter, headteacher at Quintin Kynaston School, a secondary school in North London and John Bangs, former assistant general secretary of the NUT discuss the reasons for the high numbers.

At least on-in-five five school children in England are now classed as having special educational needs (SEN), according to Ofsted. Brian Lamb, who chaired an inquiry last year into whether parents had confidence in the SEN system, gives his reaction to the claims..

Special Needs Children should go to special schools. "Special" is a term of insult, now, is it not? A bit like "spastic". It is of course a middle class racket to give their children access to the character-deformining process of whingeing for more money and "special" pleading. Notice how that head teacher refused repeatedly to answer John Humphreys when he repeatedly asked her if she gets more government funding if she has a specially large number of specially educationally needy children. What happens in effect is that these middle class specially educationally needy children get butlers to follow them around and minister to their special needs at the expense of the merely average, who are more likely to be useful citizens of the future.  This teacher and middle class parent racket of Special Needs children disadvantages the average child whose needs are not regarded as special enough to require butlers.     

Give them more money, get more of the specially needy, ie educationally inadequate. Is that what we really want?  



Being the "special" people that the British are, we probably do.  

http://www.educationlawyers.co.uk/ demonstrates what a fucking racket it all is.  

"Reward the inadequate!  Punish the productive!"  this is the rallying liberal cry. 


Well, I guess there is no reason why parasites in turn can't have their own parasites too.  When all the parasites in this country are busily feeding off each other in a unbreakable food chain of parasites who breed and eat other parasites, then this country will finally disappear up its own arsehole.  

Said a perceptive observer:

"For the percentage Ofsted considers are wrongly classified as "special educational requirements" I suspect this could be a money-saving wheeze."

But of course!  The conspiracy between the middle class parents with difficult and thick children and the useless job creating arm in the educational establishment has now been revealed!

Why is Nick Clegg sucking up to these disgraceful representatives of working  British motherhood of the Mumsnet Matriarchy? (The reason is of course that these harridans are now in charge and Cleggeron have to suck up to them real good.)  The most indiscriminately compassionate is the affluent but divorced middle class mum with her educationally-needy "special" child.

Below is an exchange between one of the whingeing mothers asking for more handouts with the Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg:  

  Letter QMadameDefarge: Apologies if this has already been covered, but have you any policies with regard to the shocking state of SEN provision in schools? Millions must be spent on various agencies, none of whom will talk to each other, heads who run out of SEN budgets, and children who are utterly ignored and failed every single day, even with full statements. Because all SEN school provision devolves onto one teacher who has probably had an afternoon's training, SENCOs who are completely untrained and just general unjoinedupness of the current system. What we do need are named advocates for individual children who take ownership of that child's needs and coordinates all involved parties, and that advocate should ot be school based.


Letter ANickClegg:The underachievement of many children with SEN is truly shameful. Our plans to introduce a £2.5bn Pupil Premium would give a massive funding boost to many children with Special Educational Needs, meaning that schools would have more money to provide specialist and one-to-one support. But we realise that when it comes to supporting children with SEN, money isn't everything. We would improve teacher training so the workforce becomes better at detecting SEN and providing appropriate support.

Why have butlers for the weird, thick and behaviorally-challenged children of the professional middle classes with access to lawyers when they could just be sent to "special" schools, out of sight, out of mind and out of trouble?

Too thick to govern is the Cleggeron!

Andromeda,
Fathering a Special Needs Child, or as they say here in Mexico, a Different Abilities Child is the ultimate proof of social status and sensitivity. Have a child like this and you get special treatment everywhere, also in the media, which doesn´t miss a chance of making a corny show on every case. Don’t misunderstand me. These children need and should be given public support, of course, but not that different from the support given to a “boring normal” citizen, and public life doesn’t have to go around them. However, it seems to me that being our modern societies as corny and weeping as they are, and our youth as useless as it is, now the media tell us to worship physical or mental deficiencies that make people to cry. Warning: Don’t you dare to question publicly why a pregnant woman who, from the very beginning, knows that she was going to have a disabled child, who would never be a full independent and productive adult didn’t have an abortion, you get the risk of being lynched for being a godless insensitive leftist idiot. Don’t you dare to say that women should become mothers at younger ages, (not in their late 30s or 40s), so they reduce the chance of having pregnancy complications because you would be called a misogynist.
Yours.
