UK Government's 'SEND Review, 2022' found decisions surrounding children's education are mainly influenced by location or school, rather than their needs. Despite over a third of pupils being identified as having Special Educational Needs (SEN) during their schooling, funding shortages and regional inconsistencies means many who have fallen behind due to late interventions are unable to catch up. Factors driving this:* Schools frequently ill-equipped to identify and effectively support children's diverse and complex needs.* Children's needs are identified late, then escalate, becoming entrenched.* Children may be incorrectly identified as having SEN when actually they have had insufficient access to high-quality teaching.* Increased requests for Education Health & Care Plans and specialist provision means significant delays in children accessing support due to a long and bureaucratic process.A 2017 study showed SEN were most common in children with a mental health disorder (35.6%). Young people with SEN often have fewer opportunities, e.g., less likely to be in sustained employment and at greater risk of exposure to a number of harms, including crime (SEND,2022).When children are assessed for SEN, educational psychologists will use a combination of methods e.g. teacher/parent reports, classroom observations, speaking to the children, and cognitive assessments (e.g., WISC-V). Depending on the SEN being assessed, WISC should be used in combination with other types of psychometric tests, thus adding to costs for schools. Whilst using all of these methods together is the SEN assessment "gold standard" (and would happen if you got a private educational psychologist assessment), given funding limitations, this does not always happen (or only happens for the children with the highest need).Cogs AI will partner with Cambridge University to produce a Neurodiversity Screener for rapid identification of SEN, reducing time/costs required to complete assessments.

英国政府的“发送审查，2022年”发现围绕儿童教育的决定主要受位置或学校的影响，而不是他们的需求。尽管有三分之一的学生在上学期间被确定为有特殊教育需求（SEN），但资金短缺和区域不一致意味着许多因晚干预而落后的人都无法追赶。推动这一驱动的因素：*学校经常能够识别并有效地支持儿童的多样化和复杂的需求。*确定了迟到，然后升级，变得根深蒂固。*当他们实际上没有足够的高质量教学的访问权限的范围内，大多数人对儿童的访问和专业提供了良好的支持，这意味着儿童在实际上没有足够的访问权力，这意味着供儿童提供的大多数人，这意味着一项长期的供应。患有精神健康障碍儿童（35.6％）常见。有森的年轻人的机会通常很少，例如，持续就业的可能性较小，并且有可能受到许多危害的风险，包括犯罪（Send，2022）。当儿童评估SEN时，教育心理学家将使用方法的组合，例如。教师/家长报告，课堂观察，与孩子们交谈以及认知评估（例如WISC-V）。根据所评估的SEN，应将WISC与其他类型的心理测验结合使用，从而增加学校的成本。虽然使用所有这些方法在一起是SEN评估“黄金标准”（如果您获得了私人教育心理学家评估），但考虑到资金限制，这并不总是会发生（或仅发生，或仅发生具有最高需求的儿童）。COGSAI将与Cambridge University合作，以生成神经化效率筛选器，以快速确定可用于完成SER/SEN CRESS COLTER SER -CELTICS SER/SERICESS CRECTINCE SER -CRECTINCE SER -CRESS COLTER SER -CRESS COLTER CLESSINGE/SELECTINCE ALDICESS/SELECTION CRECTION CRECTION CRECTIONS/SELE CRESS INSERTINCE。
