SEND Transformation Update

Following an increase in demands on service and workforce challenges resulting in a drop in statutory performance, Leeds City Council accessed its EHC assessment, plan, and annual review processes to identify key opportunities for change. The review has identified areas for improvement in the Council's communications, processes, support provided, and consistency in approaches. 

The Children and Families Directorate are providing updates throughout the process and have a webpage to serve as an information hub about the changes.
