Sir Keir Starmer has revealed that his late brother’s “fight every day to be seen” in the classroom has inspired his £4bn overhaul of special educational needs (Send) to make the system more inclusive.
The prime minister said his brother Nick, who had learning difficulties, faced a constant battle in a system “that never had any expectations for him” and that the government’s plans to transform the system would bring an an end to the “one size fits all system”.
