Parents say their children have been "humiliated" at school after being told to carry lanyards revealing learning disabilities.

Parents say Werneth School in Stockport has told children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) to wear or carry sunflower lanyards this week and show them to staff when asked.

Messages from the school, seen by the Manchester Evening News (M.E.N), say the pass can be worn or concealed and that breaching the policy 'based on defiance' may result in disciplinary action.
