Your Local Offer, your way - June (face-to-face session)

‘Your Local Offer, your way’

Join us to give your views on the information you want to see on the SEND Local Offer. If you’re a young person with SEND, the parent carer of a young person with SEND, or if you support young people with SEND, we’d love to hear from you.

This session is drop-in style, so you can arrive whenever you like between 9:00am and 11.30am and attend for as long as you choose. We also have a virtual evening session on Microsoft Teams on Monday 17 July 7:30 to 8:30pm. Book here.

At this session we will focus on continuing the development of a visual routemap for the process of early identification of SEND and support for SEND in schools. This follows on from a Southend SEND Independent Forum (SSIF) Seminar where we started the work, but you do not need to have attended the SSIF Seminar to join in - everyone is welcome to attend.

About the SEND Local Offer website and ‘Your Local Offer, your way’ sessions.

The SEND Local Offer website is your guide to services and support for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) living in Southend. We want to make sure the website is your ‘go-to’ resource, and that the information on it is clear and easy to find.

‘Your Local Offer, your way’ sessions will run throughout the year. Each session will focus on a particular area of the SEND Local Offer website. They are an opportunity for you to tell us what information you need, so that we can make sure the Local Offer is working for you.

All are welcome, so if you’re a young person with SEND, a parent carer of a child or young person with SEND, or if you support children and young people with SEND and their families, please come along and have your say.

Join us at a face-to-face session on Thursday, 27 June or virtual meeting on Wednesday, 3 July, or can email your suggestions to us at [email protected]
