Sir - We are interested to read that councillor Keith Mitchell apparently puts the recent change of policy about post-16 education for young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN) in the county entirely down the good work of the council (Letters, April 18).

Clearly the four-year campaign run by parents to remove 20 years of discrimination by the council against disabled children in Oxfordshire is seen as having little to do with achieving these changes.

Given that the county council has now single handedly righted one wrong in the area of SEN education in Oxfordshire, will councillor Mitchell now assure parents that the council will offer post-16 education to those young people with SEN who are educated in mainstream schools as well?
