Archived - Southend SEND - 'have your say'

The SEND team is currently looking into the terminology we use for the children and families we work with. We currently use the term “hearing impaired” but this is often now considered outdated. We are therefore looking at what other terminology we could use instead. If this is a topic that is relevant to you, please vote for the term you feel would be preferable for yourself or your child.

if you have any comments or queries please email AngelaHera@Southend.gov.uk. We will publish the result of the poll after it closes on 31^st August 2022. 

The SEND Local Offer website is your guide to services and support for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and their families living in Southend. We want to make sure the website is your ‘go-to’ resource, and that the information on it is clear and easy to find. 

Tell us what you think about the website and if there is anything that you feel that needs to be added or changed by completing this short survey.

If you need any help completing the survey or require it in a different format, please email localoffer@southend.gov.uk or call 01702 215256.
