Helping to inform families about support for SEND in Warwickshire

Are you looking to enhance the resources available to families of students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in your school community? 

If so, why not consider adding a link to Warwickshire County Council's Local Offer website to your school's SEND section. 

The Local Offer is a comprehensive online resource that provides information, advice and support for children and young people with SEND aged 0-25 in Warwickshire. By adding a link to the Local Offer on your school's website, you can make it easier for families to access the information they need to support their child's educational journey. 

Not only will this benefit families in your community, but it can also demonstrate your school's commitment to inclusivity and accessibility. By partnering with the Local Offer, you can help families to better navigate the often complex landscape of SEND support and ensure that your school is offering the most up-to-date and relevant information available. 

Adding a link to the Warwickshire Local Offer website is easy and can be done in just a few simple steps: 

  1. Copy and paste the wording that we’ve provided below (or feel free to adapt/use your own wording) and add this to the SEND section of your school’s website.  

By taking this small but impactful step, you can help to create a more informed and supportive community for all students.  

If you have any questions or would like some support, please contact the Family Information Service on 01926 742274 or email fis@warwickshire.gov.uk
