OPEN CONSULTATION

We're seeking views on our green paper about the changes we want to make to the special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and alternative provision (AP) system in England. This consultation is being held on another website.

SEND review: right support, right place, right time (easy read)

The government is committed to improving outcomes for children and young people with SEND and those in alternative provision.

To achieve this ambition we want to work with and hear from:

  • local and national system leaders

We encourage you to consider the proposals set out in this green paper and respond to our consultation.
