We continue to work together with children and young people, parents and carers, and with local services, including the voluntary sector, to develop our offer.
The SEND Local Offer aims to do 2 things:
-
To provide clear, comprehensive and accessible information about the support and opportunities that are available locally including education, health and social care
-
To make provision more responsive to local needs and aspirations by directly involving children and young people with SEND, parents and carers, and service providers in its development and review
