As far as possible I will tweet word for word what is said, if not possible due to speed I'll paraphrase. I'll offer no analytical commentary, I'm simply trying to facilitate #OpenJustice thru live tweeting to a wider audience #CovidSEND

I'll be live tweeting #CovidSEND judicial review for the next two days from the High Court of Justice, Queen's Bench Division Administrative Court sitting in front of The Hon Mr Justice Kerr.

Case is brought by @1985Deanne and Amber Shaw (pictured) and an anonymous claimant

1/
Claimants challenge SOS @educationgovuk @GavinWilliamson's decision to modify legal duty under S42 Children and Families Act 2014 #CovidSEND

This places a duty on local authorities to secure provision to meet special educational needs and health needs as set out in an EHCP

2/
EHCP = Education, Health and Care Plan.

According @educationgovuk 354k children and young people had an EHCP in 2019 assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/upl…

Thousands of families affected by the SOS decision to replace the duty with requirements to use 'reasonable endeavours' #CovidSEND
