Heartbreaking to read of a child in the UK dying from an entirely preventable infectious disease. Measles can be a vicious & deadly illness. The MMR vaccine offers superb protection & there is NO link between the vaccine and autism, contrary to what many medical charlatans try to peddle. (1/3)

Deciding school places through the court system in this way is clearly not desirable, affordable or sustainable. A further indicator that the SEND system is in urgent need of reform.
