Local Offer
Local Authorities must publish a local offer, setting out in one place information about provision they expect to be available for children and young people in their area who have SEN, including those who do not have Education, Health Care plans (EHCP's).
The local offer has two key purposes:
- To provide clear, comprehensive and accessible information about the provision available
- To make provision more responsive to local needs and aspirations by directly involving children and young people with SEN, parents and carers, and service providers in its development and review
