  • Terminology Quick Poll - update

    Thank you to everyone who responded to the terminology poll run by the SEND team in August 2022.

    After much discussion and consideration of the poll results alongside published documents and other sources, the team have decided to use the term ‘hearing loss’ in their documentation. The team will, however, always ask parent carers at the outset how they would like their child’s disability described.

    Southend City Council's SEND team are developing a survey for young people who have an EHCP (education, health and care needs assessment) to find out about their experience of the annual review process. The survey is in draft form currently, based on discussions we’ve already had with young people.

    It’s important that we get the questions right, so we are inviting young people with an EHCP to review the draft questions and give us their feedback by 4th September.

    You can view the survey questions on our SEND Local Offer page - Draft annual review survey for young people | Livewell Southend

    Tell us what you think by emailing localoffer@southend.gov.uk.

    The survey will be launched later in September. To accompany the launch, we’ll be producing a video for young people. We’d love for young people with SEND to be involved in this, so if there are any budding actors or voiceover artists out there that would like to take part please contact us at localoffer@southend.gov.uk by 31st August.
