Support for children aged 0-25 with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

SEND survey 2024

The SEND Survey asks for the views of parents, carers, children and young people in the BCP area who access support for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) whether in school / college, healthcare or in the community.

We use the feedback to help us build on aspects of these services which work well and make improvements where needed. The answers help us shape our services around the people we are here to support.

The survey has been created in partnership with parents, carers and partners from other organisations. Thank you to Parent Carers Together, Parent Carer Foundation, SWAN UK, SENDiass4BCP and NHS Dorset.

The SEND values of culture and co-production were developed with families and young people, and set out how we should behave and work.

Scan the QR code above to access the survey or find it online at: https://haveyoursay.bcpcouncil.gov.uk/send-survey-2024. You will find two surveys there – one for parents and carers and one for children and young people.

The survey closes on Thursday 31 October 2024.
