We asked

Overview

The Special Education Development Plan, SEDP, sets out a 3-strand approach to how we will work with children, young people and their families and other partners, including schools to develop Birmingham as an inclusive city with a fair chance for all in the context of demographic growth and available resources. The focus is on special education provision that ensures progress with learning and preparation for adulthood. The SEDP should enable children and young people with SEND aged 0-25 years to have fairer access and opportunities to move towards the long term aspirations of employment, finding somewhere to live, participating in society and good health.

We want your views to help us achieve this vision and agree the SEDP. Please read the draft SEDP along with any of the supporting documentation available at www.birmingham.gov.uk/SEND and then complete this online survey.

We are hosting a range of stakeholder events to support this consultation and these will be advertised in due course. Please contact senevents@birmingham.gov.uk for more details.

The questionnaire should take no longer than ten minutes to complete. Thank you for your time.

 

What happens next

We will analyse all responses and share a report with details of how the responses have been used to contribute towards the final SEDP by the end of 2014.
