The Fe Podcast: A Bespoke Approach To Students With Send

In this week’s episode of the Tes FE podcast, John Thornhill, chief executive of the LTE Group, and Tes columnist Sarah Simons discuss the 25-year-old legal structures that put constraints on colleges, and growing fears that the unintended consequences of these could lead to a catastrophic failure in the sector.

Tune in and enjoy!
