>> Hello everyone
>>
>> After reading Ann's email I wrote to Christine Vincent (Director at Becta 
>> with special responsibility for inclusion) asking for clarification.  She 
>> mentioned three areas that will be set up in the future:
>> 1.  A feedback session/seminar to interested parties at BETT on how our 
>> new working practices are shaping
>> up.
>> 2.  An Expert Reference Group to support Becta's thinking in terms of the 
>> personalisation agenda and inclusion.
>> 3.  Work with existing stakeholder groups to help formulate our thinking 
>> on a cross sector framework for assistive technologies.
>> (Christine's words not mine)
>>
>> So nothing concrete arranged yet so we shall have to wait and see.
>>
>> I'm still in the dark about Stephen Crowne's statement:
>>> As you will know. senior Becta colleagues met Jeff Hughes and other MPs
>>> at a recent parliamentary lobby, to discuss their concerns. We invited
>>> groups interested in SEN and Inclusion to attend both our regular
>>> forums, and a special seminar which we are planning for early next year.
>>> where we will report on the outcome of our evaluation of our new 
>>> approach
>>> and seek views on how we should move forward.
>>
>> If Stephen Crowne thinks Jeff Hughes is an MP we have some work to do!
>> I wonder who the 'groups interested in SEN and Inclusion were?
>> Did anyone on SENIT get invited as part of whatever groups were invited?
>> I don't belong to any groups apart from SENIT so that cuts me out.

>>> Hi Judith
>>> Interesting reply, much of which is a rephrasing of previous responses

>>> it keeps the pot boiling and lets them know we will not disappear....
>>> Does anyone know what the 'regular forums' are that are referred to by
>>> Stephen Crowne?? Or indeed when, where and  what the special seminar 
>>> will
>>> be??
>>> Well done Judith
