Following the publication of the new Children and Young People Plan 2024-2027, Halton SEND Strategic Improvement Board are excited to develop the new Special Education Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) Strategy.

The Halton SEND Strategic Improvement Board would like to invite you to take part in developing the Halton Local Area Partnership SEND Strategy. The board want to co-produce the strategy, to ensure that they take a joined-up approach to address the aims of the plan and develop common goals to ensure that:
