Special educational needs families and the fight for education
Sofia is one of more than one million young people in the UK with special educational needs and disabilities, or SEND.
She’s among one fifth of young people with SEND who have the most complex needs.
During lockdown, while schools closed to the majority of children, the government said that the most vulnerable, including those with complex special educational needs could still attend.
Families speaking to Panorama say they've found accessing support difficult and that it was an example of the long-term struggles they have faced getting educational support for their children during lockdown.
UK viewers can watch Panorama: Fighting for an Education on BBC One on 7 September, or later on the iPlayer.
