We have all had concerns ranging from education,acess to services,respite and other issues directly related to their childrens needs. Parents of disabled children bring families together for friendship, to share information and to support one another.

Parents of disabled children launched in October 2009 and we are growing day by day and are fastly becoming a major support resource for all

Hi, please help me, I'm so confused...
Being new to the English SEN programs, everything I've read says placements are based on age and ability [and disability category]. My son is 13yrs but has an ability of an 8yr old. How would a placement be figured out when this is the case. He's autistic, low vision, and high functioning mental retardation. Simply put, he's categorized as autistic.
