SEND Surgeries

The Southend Council Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Team are holding monthly SEND Surgeries in community locations across the city. The surgeries provide parent carers with a friendly and informal opportunity to drop-in, ask questions and receive support on anything relating to SEND. Booking is not required and parents who have attended surgeries so far have found them very helpful.

The next surgery is on Tuesday 21 February between 9 and 11am at Southend Adult Community College. For more information and further surgery dates and venues visit the SEND Local Offer: www.southend.gov.uk/SENDsurgeries

Annual Review Surveys

The Southend Council Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) team want to hear from children and young people and parent carers about their experience of the annual review process; and their views about the impact of the support they are getting from EHCPs.

Following the launch of the parent carer survey in 2022, a survey for children and young people is now available.
