Proceeding contribution from Annette Brooke (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 16 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Special Educational Needs (Information) Bill.
Special Educational Needs (Information) Bill
I thank the hon. Lady—she is right. When I say that parents and others are impatient, I am suggesting that they have every reason to be so, and that the feeling is that we should surely just get on and invest the money. There are many special educational needs. Much attention is focused on dyslexia, which is important because it has been identified that perhaps one in five pupils are potentially dyslexic. Children with dyslexia are underperforming greatly in all the key stage tests, which has wider implications for their potential and what might happen to them in wider society.
