Call for views on special educational needs and disabilities provision in Leeds

    People in Leeds will be able to share their views on education provision for children and young people who have special educational needs or disabilities, as part of a new consultation launched this week.

    Leeds City Council has been allocated just over £1 million of government funding per year for three years to support the need to have enough quality school places for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in Leeds.

    In order to inform future SEND provision in Leeds schools, the council is now seeking the views of families and other interested parties on the current offer and their wishes and needs for the future.

    The available options for the investment includes creating new school places either in new provision or by expanding existing good or outstanding settings.
