The SEND Local Offer or SEND School Information Report gives information for parents, in a single place, which helps them to understand what services are available to support disabled children and children with SEND and their families.

This information sets out what is normally available in schools to help children with SEND as well as highlighting what support is available for families who need additional help to support children with more complex needs.
