Source: Learning Disability Today
From the article: "Young people with special educational needs (SEN) experience much higher rates of discrimination and bullying than their peers, leading to worse outcomes in mental wellbeing, life satisfaction, self-esteem and emotional difficulties.
"The findings are from a new report from #BeeWell, a programme co-founded by Anna Freud. The report includes data from over 20,000 young people receiving SEN support or with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) in Greater Manchester, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Portsmouth, and Southampton.
"It found that the rate of discrimination due to a disability is almost three times higher for those receiving SEN support and four times higher for those with an EHCP compared to peers without."
