About this Event

Disability, Inclusion and Special Needs in the current COVID crisis. How can we re-create what education needs to look like?

Colleagues from the Disability, Inclusion and Special Needs Department (DISN) at University of Birmingham will host an event in which a panel of speakers will talk about disability and special needs in the current COVID-19 pandemic. The panel will consist of parents of children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and researchers who have undertaken research on the impact of the pandemic on families of children with SEND.

The panel members are Barbara Sandland, Sara King, Sharon Smith, Shardia Palmer, Simon Wallace and Clara Jørgensen.

Professor Julie Allan will chair the discussion.
