Join The National Conversation on SEND Reform
The Schools White Paper will be published early next year and will set out the proposed reforms to the special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) system. Building on extensive engagement over the past year, the Department for Education (DfE) has launched a national conversation on SEND reform.
Every voice will help shape the system our children and young people deserve. We want to hear views, experiences and insights from as many people as possible in the coming months.
