Today: Carers of gifted children; mother charged over baby's death and DCSF's segmentation of children and young people
- A new report has highlighted the plight of carers of gifted children and claims local government and charities are not doing enough to help them. The report from the National Association for Gifted Children claims gifted children are not expected to be in care and consequently their specialist needs are often unmet.
- According to the BBC a mother has been charged with neglecting her 13-month-old son whose body was found at a house in Greater Manchester earlier this week.
- The Department for Children, Schools and Families has published the results of a national survey of 2,500 parents and carers of resident children and 1,500 children and young people to identify how they can be "segmented" based on their attitudes and behaviours towards current policy issues.
