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).
They would like to hear your views about the support that your child receives. You can provide your views by completing an online survey at the link below.

EPCF has only just been notified about this inspection so there is only a few days left for you to notify Ofsted and the CQC of your views and opinions. The closing date to complete the survey is 9am on Tuesday 16 September 2025.

We understand the pressures that parents and carers are under but it is really important that as many people as possible are able to complete the survey so that your views can be heard.

If you would rather not complete the online form, you can download and complete these Word documents and email them to the inspectors
