BOLTON school teachers are being urged to take part in a government consultation on the future of special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) provision.

The exercise follows an injection of £350million into the sector.

Bolton West MP Chris Green said: "It’s our ambition to ensure that every child gets the best start in life and the best quality education they can.

“SEND provisions play in important role in this. I am pleased the government is reaching out to teachers across the country to ask them what more can be done.”
