Coram Children’s Legal Centre, in collaboration with volunteers from law firms, runs the School Exclusion Clinic, which offers virtual free legal representation to parents or carers of children and young people who have been permanently excluded from a school in London.

This webinar is brought to you by the Garden Court Chambers Community Care Law and Education Law Teams, jointly with Coram Children’s Legal Centre. The Law Commission recently consulted on restructuring the law on disabled children’s social care. This webinar will discuss some of the different perspectives on the potential changes.

Coram and the Thomas Coram Research Unit (based at University College London) hold an annual lecture to consider current themes in research relevant to children and families. This year’s lecture will focus on children and young people migrating on their own to the UK, the persistent disconnects between the realities of young people's lives and current policy and practice responses, and the value of more fully engaging the voices and experiences of young people in research, policy debate and beyond.

These free sessions will provide an opportunity to reflect on the challenges disabled young people may face at times of transition, and how we can support them to make this process smoother, by ensuring that their rights are upheld. This will include exploring legislation.

This free training will provide an opportunity to reflect on the challenges for professionals of communicating meaningfully with young people who have disabilities, learning difficulties or additional communication needs, and the role of an advocate in supporting this communication.
