Sheffield City Council, NHS Sheffield Clinical Commissioning Group and Sheffield’s Parent Carer Forum have worked together to draft an inclusion strategy. It explains how we, as a city, improve in meeting the needs of our children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
 
Developing this strategy involved:

• co-production sessions in October (over 60 people attended)
• the views of young people taking part in discussion groups
• a strategy survey
• the Parent Carer Forum’s State of Sheffield survey (over 700 responses)

The strategy will run for five years and set the priorities for how Sheffield supports its children and young people with additional needs. 

The survey runs until to 8 December 2019. We’d like you to let us know what you think of our strategy, the support that’s currently available and how you think it could be improved.
