Neurodivergent children at school

Early day motion 1882, tabled 10 September 2025 by Adam Dance (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 46 members.

That this House notes with concern that, despite the hard work of teaching staff, too many neurodivergent children are not having their needs properly identified at school, potentially making learning inaccessible; acknowledges the personal effort of many teachers to make their classroom accessible, and that teaching staff require greater support; recognises that early intervention, including universal screening programmes for neurodivergence in primary school age children and increased teacher training will help give teaching staff the confidence and tools to identify and support neurodivergent pupils early; and therefore calls on the Government to support the Neurodivergence (Screening and Teacher Training) Bill.
