Area SEND inspection: survey information for practitioners

Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) are visiting your area, as part of an inspection. We will be looking at arrangements for children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).  

We would like to hear your views about the support that you provide to children and young people with SEND.  We would also like to understand how you work with other agencies to ensure children and young people receive the right support. You can provide your views by completing an online survey at the following link: 

Complete the Survey

Your views are important to us and will help inspectors understand how the arrangements within your area support children and young people. The survey will close 9am on Tuesday 4 July 2023. 

The survey is voluntary, and you do not have to take part. The responses will complement the evidence collected by inspectors during the inspection. We do not ask for your name. 

If you complete this survey, you consent to the transfer of your information from SmartSurvey to Ofsted.
