Proceeding contribution from Lord Addington (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Friday, 13 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Special Educational Needs (Information) Bill.


Special Educational Needs (Information) Bill

My Lords, I thank the Minister. I want to put one question to him. In my speech I pointed out the fact that there is a lot of late diagnosis, particularly in people from what used to be called working class backgrounds, possibly because there were no expectations. Is any work going on into how best to help those who are diagnosed later, for instance only when they are in secondary school, who may well be resistant to any form of classroom support for things like spelling and reading?
