Review
of Provision for Special Educational Needs
and
Disabilities (SEND)
In accordance with Devon's SEND Strategy and implementation plan, Devon County Council
is undertaking an annual review of education provision for children and young
people with special educational needs and disabilities for whom DCC has
responsibility.
As part of the review,
the Council is undertaking a short series of surveys during the Autumn 2017, to
obtain feedback from as many of those directly involved as possible. The
outcomes from the review will directly impact on education provided in the
future.
We want to know what
is going well, identify what can be done better, set clear priority areas for
improvement and so improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND.
We are consulting with
a range of stakeholders and want to obtain feedback from as many of those
directly involved as possible, including parents/carers, children and young
people and education providers.
Please complete the
questionnaires as a provider of education. Additionally, where possible please
promote the questionnaires which are available for children & young people
and parents/carers.
Accessibility Survey
Below are two surveys: one is designed for children, young
people and their families and the other is for education providers. Both
surveys look at accessibility.
Accessibility Survey for Education
Providers
This is about children
and young people with a disability, specifically to:
- increase
the extent to which pupils with a disability can participate in the
curriculum;
- improve
the physical environment of schools to increase the extent to which
disabled pupils can take advantage of education and associated services;
and
- improve
the delivery of information to pupils with a disability
