Have your say on proposals to improve support for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in Leicestershire.

Leicestershire County Council has launched a consultation on a three-year-plan which sets out how organisations representing education, health and social care will work together to improve services and support.

The strategy sets out a range of local area priorities identified in the SEND and Inclusion Development Plan.

These include:

  • Improving early identification and timeliness of needs assessments across system partners 
  • A focus on supporting attendance and inclusion, particularly in mainstream settings 
  • Supporting successful well-planned transitions between educational settings and through to adult services 
  • A focus on helping children to achieve good outcomes and support their preparation for adulthood. 

The consultation on the draft SEND and Inclusion Strategy 2024-2027 lasts for eight weeks and closes on midnight, 8th April.
