Ealing Area SEND Inspection
Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) are visiting our area, as part of an inspection. They will be looking at arrangements for children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
This Local Area SEND inspection will evaluate services jointly delivered by education, health, and social care. Inspectors from Ofsted and the CQC will assess how effectively the Local Area meets its statutory responsibilities for children and young people aged 0–25 with SEND.
Full details of the Area SEND inspections: framework and handbook are available on the government website here
