Local Authority Local Offer
The Children and Families Act (2014) requires Local Authorities and academies to publish, and keep under review, information about services that are available for the children and young people with Special Educational Needs (SEND) aged 0-25.
The Local Offer:
- provides information for families with children who have a special educational need or disability
- improves choice and transparency for these families
- helps professionals to understand the range of local services and provision
- improves joint commissioning arrangements for services by setting out (in a single place) what is available locally
Details about West Northamptonshire’s Local Offer can be found on the West Northamptonshire Council website
