Essex Local Area SEND Inspection
Your chance to take part in a webinar as part of the Ofsted and CQC inspection…
Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) are carrying out a joint inspection from Monday 30 September to Friday 4 October 2019.
This is to see how well the local area is fulfilling its responsibilities for children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
The inspection will check how effectively the local area:
- identifies the needs of children and young people with SEND
- meets the needs of these children and young people so their outcomes and chances of participating fully in society improve.
During the inspection, Ofsted and CQC inspectors will be keen to speak to as many children and young people and their parents and carers as possible.
