19-year-old Mary has spent the last three years looking for a permanent job. After being diagnosed with autism and dyslexia, she told ITV News the lack of SEND support at school has had long-lasting effects on her. Today, the government published new SEND training resources to support teachers, marking the start of sweeping reforms. The Schools Minister Georgia Gould said £4 billion is being invested into reform and the government was committed to support throughout early adulthood. But critics say more funding and teachers are needed to make a meaningful difference.
