Special Educational Needs and Disability Act (SENDA)

The Special Educational Needs and Disability Act (SENDA) is UK legislation that ensures students with special educational needs or disabilities are treated fairly and have equal access to education. It requires schools and colleges to make reasonable adjustments, remove barriers, and provide support so these students can participate fully. SENDA aims to promote inclusion, prevent discrimination, and ensure that all learners receive the necessary resources to succeed academically and socially.
