West Sussex County Council are consulting with Early Years and Childcare providers, parents and carers, professionals and other interested stakeholders, focusing on the support for children under 5 with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

Following a review of current support, we are pleased to be able to share with you our proposed changes, which we intend to implement from January 2021. These are outlined in a video which includes proposed new ways of working including changes to inclusion funding and EYPARM. Read a summary of the proposed changes.

After you have watched the presentation, we would really welcome your views via a short questionnaire. The consultation will remain open until midnight on Sunday 18 October 2020.

Once the consultation has closed, we will review the feedback and provide a summary of the responses and report on the findings and next steps by 18 December 2020. Please do take this opportunity to give us feedback so we can make sure that your views are taken into consideration and shape the plan.
