- Thousands of the most vulnerable and troubled children in England have been lost in the education system because there is not enough specialist provision to look after them, with many ‘high risk’ kids being out of school for nearly two years.
Sky News has spoken to education leaders who say there are not enough special schools for children with severe behavioural and mental health problems.
And the problem is likely to get worse as children suffering mental problems from the pandemic enter the system.

My son is in mainstream with ADHD and short term memory issues, there are no special needs schools in my area at all. Closing any special needs school is disgusting.
I thought parents wanted provision in main stream schools rather than separate schools? I know the SENCO system has changed since my daughter entered in 1994. I know how hard it is. Does he not get LSA support? If not that’s disgraceful. I’m sorry x
Sad to hear that
Very sad to hear😢
It is very sad 😭
I went to a ‘special’ school and they always treat me like a baby, I’d imagine this is the case for a lot of them
Instead of spending millions on the Queens Jubilee why didn’t we fund these schools instead. Also the teachers of these school are true heroes. It broke my heart to watch this wake up government we need these schools
The taxes raised from the jubilee is more than what these schools need.
They aren't mutually exclusive. Money can spend on both.
They’re ALL lost in the system!! Government make school so boring and dull that most can’t wait to leave for their factory or shop job! Only private schools teach, and the state schools are designed to feed the shops,factories, cleaners, taxis bus drivers bin men etc! Shame more people can’t see it, we merely exist to work.
this is direct results of tory austerity . yes fully agea This tory goverment don't give a F
My grand son was saved by maple field he started at. 4 -16and went on for 7yeas as a special needs teacher assistant he stills s struggles, but he’s doing so good. We are so proud of him.
i graduated from a special school last year and loking back I am glad i got into a special school beacuse I was expelled twice from my primary school but they didnt know how to handle SEN students but when i got in to a special school they helped me gain clarity with my emotions however the school got more and more crowded due t the lack of SEN schools in the UK
this is direct results of tory austerity , closing these type of schools and creating special units in mainstream schools doesn't seem to work , plus its difficult teaching experience i managed 6 years in this job and left teaching all together afterwards
Specialist schools have been closing over the last 60 years
Direct results of breeding like flies
The language unit my son is in is part of a mainstream school and it’s brilliant he’s only in a class of five and he’s come on leaps and bounds because of it there definitely seems to be more support here in Scotland
It has nothing to do with austerity and everything to do with liberal politicians being "politically correct", trying to do mainstreaming and terrain flattening. Liberals want to abolish grammar schools, abolish private schools and abolish special schools, to place ALL disabled people into mainstream schools, on the basis that those 3 types of non-mainstream schools, that they are ablelist, sexist, classist and racist.
All to promote their "equality of outcome" and "equal and equitable representation" so group X and group Y are equally represented within the same schools.
Unfortunately dumb comment like this are why the problem never gets sorted
I’m 20 now and got diagnosed with autism/ Asperger’s when I was 18 and I really struggled when I was in school/ collage. No one understood how hard it was for me to learn or do exams and it resulted in me doing terrible in everything I did but the things I loved like art and I look back now and think iv missed out on a lot all because no one , not even my parents gave me help I really needed.
I got diagnosed with Aspergus Syndrome when I was sixteen
10 closed last year and more will close this year? And yet austerity is supposed to be over and we are now "levelling up"??? Yeah right Boris.
It’s seems to be more of a problem in England and there is lack one to one support as well up here in Scotland there is more support and the specialist provision classes in mainstream schools are small classes so there’s more support
@@kiezorfc8559 ...I must admit I am highly jealous of the Scottish education system. It seems far superior. It makes me wish that I could vote for the SNP. But then ypu guys have to tolerate the constant non-sense from Westminster, restricting your progress.

@@lafreeman4558i was in special needs schools from 1996 to 2007. Northern primary here in Kirkby from 1996 to summer 2002. and Altbridge in Huyton from September 2002 to June 2007. I was diagnosed with Aspergers in 2001. My best friend Kevin went to both schools with me
Heart breaking 💔 😢
The fact that the grip is painful is just so sad and heart breaking aswell. And WHY THE HELL DOES EVERY TEACHER MAKE THE SAME FACE FOR EVERY EXPRESSION. but nah every teacher for every feeling/expression: 😐
I been waiting 2 years and I’m still waiting for my son for a special school place, we been let down big time 😢
Please don't touch anyone who's having a meltdown if they're on ASD, it makes us worse.
So just let them rampage huh what a great idea
I don’t have regular meltdowns but I agree leave us alone sometimes we just need a few minutes on our own. Luckily most my teachers understand.
i personally don’t find being touched/soothed as long as it’s by someone i know and trust. my key worker at school was great at giving my hugs and stopping me from hurting myself during meltdowns.
True
@@conquestofhipsters3280meltdown= rampage?
🤦♂️
The staff are amazing so sweet
Depends.....
They're being filmed , so best behavior.
@@hellobanking802 No. Most staff are genuinely nice.
Usually not this sweet when there are no witnesses around.
Most staff at mine are good although they are the few stricter one. My favourite one is my best friend thoughhh
I have some SENs and possibly autism. Mainstream just isn't an option for me. I am on my 4th secondary school. All I want is to be able to learn and have a bright future. I desperately need a school like this, but there just aren't enough of them, and none in my area.
I just burst into tears at the end. The system really has failed us. I don't think I'll ever even be able to get a minimum wage job at this point, let alone one I want.
@@marleywolfdogdont give up just keep moving forward
They always end up in prison, especially if the government ignores the finding of this special schools
Normal people are the most dangerous!!
Funny that eh. They always end up in prison….
That’s because they’re damaged and no amount of education and support can change mental illness… Sounds harsh but it’s like how there’s no cure for paralysis
As someone who has struggled with my autism and ADHD i wish i could of been in a primary school like this in my old primary school the teachers would tackle me to the floor and pin me down and it sucked because i felted like a weirdo and idiot for causeing trouble
So glad that the specialist provision schools and language units in Edinburgh don’t have these problems just hope the rest of the country can benefit from what we have here there seems to be more one to one support here in Scotland compared to England
i personally have struggled with school provision 😔 i have to go out to west lothian everyday to the closest specialist provision and it took me about a year to get in!
14 years of tories. They should be ashamed...
?
Fantastic school. So needed
👍
That school looks like a jail....who picked the color scheme and design?
Because these type of schools are like jail..
@@velsie2303 whilst I agree they can be, the schools are the best.
The fixtures and fittings all have to be constructed extremely solidly or they'll be broken before the end of the first week of term.

My school almost gotten shut down forever until a new building got built and my entire school got moved there (I'm a special needs student in a special needs school that is thriving)
I was in bramfield Hause in Suffolk I'm 33 with adhd and I wish every day I was back there😭😅
😂😂😂😂😂😂
the closures happened under the ideal of equality thinking that their is no distinct difference to educational matters when it comes to education under the process of mainstreaming like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.
Just wow 💔
im the boy that spoke
Over a year of no school for my son .... still waiting a placement for somewhere like this . My heart breaks for him
teachers are amazing .
That happens to me too
We needs schools like this in Texas. Boarding schools like this are to be educational, therapeutic and disciplinary.
True there’s a huge lack of discipline in the states. It’s getting pretty bad in Maryland.
I went to new rush hall and its the best school by far.
I moved away and went to the london boxing academy after but wish I could've stayed at nrhs because they genuinely helped.
Big up mr blake, made english lessons fun.
They need this school in SC
They need to keep more of these schools open, thats it they just need to.
My daughter can be like that and struggling in school
I went to a special boarding school in the early 1980s . I cannot credit that place enough. It made me . Put the past in a box and build a new brighter future . Sadly the school closed in 1993 .
I'm a year 10 student at a SEMH school within the Parallel Learning Trust, we have recently been growing so much and opened our 2nd site with the same Head teacher! There's 7 different academy's in the trust. (8 with our second one)
When we say leave us alone don’t talk to us get of me pls do ur best to listen to that unless we are hurting people or ourselves
I was like this is primary never knew why i was the only one acting like that, got kicked out and ended up going to a special needs school due to the fact i was being refused to mainstream school and found out i have asd and adhd when i was 15.
I ended up in the care system because my episodes got so bad that my mum didnt know how to help me anymore.
Failed by the camhs team when i was younger, i feel things wouldnt have got so bad if they didnt forget about my case for years until it was too late.
I'd hate for this to keep happening to young people like that, its not fair
went to a behavior school in sydney australia was kinda like juvi from year 6 to 12 some come from juvi
14:37 there he waits for the green man 🤣🤣🤣
I am a special educator from india and have expirience in dealing with special need student.I wanna know the realtime situation of special education for a study if anybody can share me some info that would be great knowing the real time situations and hurdles
Definatliy need more of these schools this school is makeing a big difference this goverment needs to do more !!!!!
No government EVER cares about those born with ruined lives, through no fault of their own, but there's always all manner of sympathy for those stupid addicts who CHOOSE to screw up their OWN lives through their own weakness, well they won't get any such sympathy from me!
Our education system needs to change. How does our government expect us to run the country with all this?
It's cuz they don't care about us, the poor, the old, the disabled,
We need a new government not the tories nor Labour
We need a NEW Government that Cares about the elderly, the disabled, the people of this country as a Whole.
A True Socialist government
@@WelshLefty26490 Not gonna lie, left or right, we just need a government that actually cares for once, honestly.
@@MrBranFlake True
The woman in the grey suit looks similar to one of the women in thr ‘educating series’. I’m sur she was a behaviour/school counsellor too.
God bless these people 🙏

@@coopergarham4505nah this Sam btw
I have worked with young people with SEND. They need the right support in order to thrive. Build more schools!!!! Also pay staff more money. SEN staff are specially skilled yet are amongst the lowest pay A SEN LSA will be lucky to make £23,000 a year! I’m Incredivly lucky my son has a special school. They need more residential schools that are therapeutic.
School it looks like a prison
I thought that
Because they’re a danger to themselves and others
This isnt normal i used too go too a normal school but when i got kicked off slowly bc of my autism and adhd i had too goo to a new special school ITS NOT EVEN NEAR THIS looks just like a normal one and yeah people freak but they cant do anything that hurts themselves or others this is weird
it seems more like an asylum to me 😣
Hardly
Omg I live near that school
Maybe can I go to that school I have autism ADHD but I fine it hard to talk because I am a bit shd
I’ve been very lucky to get into a special needs school and a special need building at my college
Not all teachers understood but the one that did made me so happy
Nessesary is working with nhs a psychologist or a psychiatrist ,where many schools are struggling with referrals!
Nice alarms I see... theres a pyronix decibel at 11:51
Are the staff this kind when TV crews are not there?
The teachers in mine are normal nice
@@R1L3Y15 alright.
Mostly
Yeah they’re pretty chill won’t lie
Holy cow
Angels
UK
Nooooooooooo
why did 10 close?
Because they're proven to do nothing, and not preparing them for harsh reality of life when they leave school, which is they're not special and have to work and follow the rules like everyone else
@@firstname4865 this is why a majority of these places close they don’t make enough progress if they can’t correct these issues
No comment.
00:12 PK 😂😂😂
I'm like this
1970s special school did not help me with being a dyslexic few people are dyslexic jay blades , darcey bussell , lynda la plante ed baines jackie stewart benjamin zephanian if look at school 70s at time pass over look over
I don't think the education system was geared up for people with additional needs back in the '70s sadly.
What
I require this I have had 10 restraining orders this week
i dont lol also hi there
When I was in UK. I saw empty boarded up streets under a constant grey sky, litter everywhere.
Homeless people sleeping in doorways. Opioid addicts out of their mind and women so drunk they urinated on the streets. It's a sad declined country.
The money goes to the royal family mostly
And theres one main problem that seems to cause most of it, but we can’t talk about it without being called racist
bros running into a wall
That women really cares about her job how amzing is that she just wants to me there and get them ready to try reset and get them back to being ok
Asperger’s is the same thing as autism
Yes and no
Similar
Special school have verbal
I superf with autism i had problems at school and was hard to find a good one but my mum did and it was a good shool my behaviour got better it was a speal needs school is just had good facilities and traing
And i could allways make my point clear were i a feel i wasnt in the rong for something i could prove it

Ye its not esy but now im alot happyer
Not as many as in the past, its whats in the water, and all these new chemicals and technologies and exposures.
In the past they got sent to a mental institute to rot, disowned or worse. Plus the total population has exploded since "the past" and we have cameras now to share this stuff
Hey 👋
It's just that mental health is more out there now so mores known about it
I go to a special 🏫
This is not a school this is a prison
This is disgusting
I went to one of these places and while I agree they can be prison like, it did indeed save me from actual Prison or worse...
Agreed
An ordinary school environment wouldn't last more than a few days unfortunately.
