Notice Information

Notice Title

External Review SEND Phase 2&3

Notice Description

Wirral is committed to ensuring that there is sufficient, high quality Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) provision to meet the needs of Wirral' s children and young people with special educational needs. This commitment is outlined in Wirral's Children and Families strategy which states that 'we will develop ambitious and inclusive plans to improve outcomes for children with special educational needs and / or disabilities, using their plans and national best practice to inform our local approach to commissioning school places. Wirral Council has identified that providing quality Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) provision is becoming increasingly challenging in the borough. In light of the Children's Act in 2014 and the reforms outlining the duty on mainstream schools to use their "best endeavours" to provide support to children and young people with a Special Educational Need or Disability (SEND) there is a growing tension between the rising demand for support and ensuring that there are adequate resources within the mainstream and specialist sector.
