SEND toolkit for educational providers

The Lancashire Inclusion Toolkit for Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) is aimed at all educational providers and settings supporting children and young people aged 0-25 years within Lancashire.

It outlines the provision and support that Lancashire County Council expects to be in place in all educational settings which support our children and young people with SEND, and therefore forms an important part of the Lancashire Local Offer for SEND.

Its purpose is to provide detailed guidance on how educational settings can identify children and young people with different types and levels of need, along with information on appropriate steps and strategies to support them.

The Lancashire Inclusion Toolkit also provides clear information about when a request for an Education, Health and Care needs assessment, or specialist services, may be required.
