Is the Education system failing special needs children? 07 Mar 2007
Some mothers of children with special needs are holding an all-night vigil outside the Houses of Parliament on Thursday night to highlight their campaign to get better education for their children.

They say parents are still having to battle to get the right care for their children despite government claims that the system is working. So where is the right place to educate children with special needs?

Jenni will be discussing the issue with Julie Maynard, whose son Joshua suffers from cerebral palsy and autism, and Peter Farrell, Professor of Special Needs and Educational Psychology, University of Manchester.
