Fund mandatory neurodevelopmental screening for all children

Screening could take place in primary care, including GP appointments, health visitor reviews, and school entry health at key developmental stages. It should involve early, trauma-informed, and identity-safe screening tools, with clear referral pathways, follow-up support, and outcomes monitored.

We think mandatory neurodevelopmental screening could mean:
• Earlier recognition of children who need support
• Better outcomes in school, home, and mental health
• A shift from crisis response to prevention.

We believe Parliament must act now to protect future generations from preventable harm. Neurodivergent children deserve to be seen — not after a crisis, but from the start.
