We are working with experts nationally to develop new national inclusion standards and specialist provision packages and to set out how we want to see children supported in mainstream schools and specialist schools. I would be happy to discuss that further with the hon. Member.
Some 40,000 children each year acquire a brain injury, which are recorded, if at all, under a broad range of categories.
