Coventry SEND Local Offer

Coventry SEND Local Offer, in conjunction with SEND Information Advice and Support Service, are hoping to offer an event (scheduled for 4th November 2022) to provide information to young people and their families about the current offer around supporting young people with special educational needs in Coventry. It will focus on those young people between the ages of 14-25 and preparing them for adulthood.

Following previous events on this topic, we would like to make the event as relevant to you as possible - therefore, we would welcome your input into the sorts of information you would like to find out about. Each area of focus would then have a specific timeslot on the day, meaning that you only have to attend the topics that are relevant to you or your young person.

The poll will close on Friday 9th September - thanks for your contribution!  

Have you been through an Education Health and Care Needs Assessment for a child or young person?

If you and/or your child have been supported by the SEND Support Service, we’d like to know what you think about us. 

This may have been by a practitioner from:

• Complex Communications Team (CCT)
• Complex Communications Specialist Practitioner (CCSP)
• Educational Psychology Team (EP)
• SEND Early Years Team
• Sensory Team
• Social, Emotional, Mental Health and Learning Team (SEMHL)

The survey is for parents/carers. There are 10 questions and it should take no longer than a few minutes to complete.

My Support Plan

In your educational setting you/your child may be supported by a My Support Plan. If you have used a My Support Plan, this short survey will help us to evaluate your experience and make sure it is an effective way to meet your/your child’s SEN.

There are 8 short questions and it should take no longer than 5 minutes to complete.

Dear all

As a result of how our normal ways of working have changed, for most of us this means that we are spending more time working from schools/settings/home rather than visiting our office base at Limbrick Wood, this blended approach has bought benefits, such as a reduction in the time we spend commuting, as well as challenges. 

To help us plan ahead we want to gather your views about how we can meet need and improve working arrangements and access to resources.  Therefore we have compiled this short survey to identify how much office touch-down and collaborative working space, as well as access to resources you will require to enable you to effectively carry out your role from September 2021.

So that we can do this collaboratively, I would be grateful if you could complete this short survey, which should take a few minutes, by Friday 25 June 2021.

Thanking you in anticipation

We’re getting in touch because one or more of your Reception children is in receipt of additional SEND funding attached to a My Support Plan.

We’re evaluating these arrangements to find out how helpful they have been for children and settings and decide whether the arrangements should continue to be offered in the new school year.

To help us do this, we’d be grateful if you could answer the following questions so that we can continue to identify the best ways to support children with SEND in Coventry..

Coventry City Council will use your personal information as part of our SEND self evaluation to understand how well our partnership performs relative to the ‘features of a good SEND partnership’, as set out the SEND Local Inspection Handbook.

To make sure our evaluation is valid and reliable, we need to draw on the knowledge and skills from across our local partnerships. 

 

We are collecting personal information which will only be used to contact you in relation to the Focus Group and will not be shared outside Coventry City Council. 

More details about how we use information about you can be found in the full privacy notice HERE 

As part of Coventry's assessment of how children and young people with SEND are progressing and being supported, we would like to hear about their experiences, as well as those who support them. This survey looks at a few main areas which, in working together with families and professionals across the city, we can build upon to help Coventry's "Local Offer" for those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. 

Children and Young People with SEND covers a wide range of areas and services so this survey may not directly cover something that you feel needs to be raised. If this is the case, then please put these thoughts under the questions which offer this option. 

If you have more than one child with SEND, please feel free to complete the survey for them too - please complete one survey per child.

Coventry's new Parent Carer Forum are looking for increased engagement and participation amongst parents and carers in the city, and the results of this survey will be shared with them to identify ways to maximise their voice.  If you would like to join the forum, or keep in touch with their activities, you can find out more through https://www.coventrypcf.com/join-us 

Thank you for attending the Coventry SEND Conference 2024.  Please take a moment to complete our evaluation form as your feedback is important to inform future conferences.

Thank you for attending the Coventry SEND Conference 2023

This form is for providing feedback on your experiences of using SEND services in Coventry. It can be completed by young people themselves, along with their parents and carers, and the professionals working with them. Where possible, detailing your answers will help not only to describe your experience, but also help us understand what works best for young people with SEND in Coventry. 

The information you provide will be shared with the people who lead Coventry’s SEND Services and be used to improve the way we work with children and young people with SEND. On occasion, we may also:

• Share information with Health, Care and Education professionals to help them understand the experiences that children, young people and families have of the SEND system.
• Include information in our self-evaluation to show the changes we’ve made to SEND services and why.  

More information about how we store and process the information that you share through this form can be found in our privacy notice, which is available here: https://www.coventry.gov.uk/coventry-send-support-service/coventry-send-support-service-privacy-notice . 

Please read our privacy notice before completing this form.

 

This survey should take no more than 5 minutes to complete and will be hugely valuable in identifying next steps to support school leaders in this area.  

Thanks
