Support for SEND
Use the buttons below to find out more about the support available for your child in early years, during school age and when preparing for adult life.
Support and activities for families
We understand that caring for a child or young person with SEND can be challenging, and that families can often need extra support, whether it’s advice on SEND, help finding suitable childcare or finding activities.
Education Health and Care Plans (EHCPs)
An EHCP is for children and young people who need more support than is available through special educational needs support. EHCPs set out a child or young person’s education, health and care needs and the extra support required to meet them.
Financial support
Children and young people with SEND and their families may be entitled to additional financial support.
