Identification and support for SEND in the early years

Supporting a child's development in the early years is crucial, and understanding the process can be even more important when a child has, or may have, Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

This resource is designed to be a helpful guide for families, early years practitioners, and anyone supporting young children. It outlines key information about identifying SEND in early childhood, the range of support available, and how to access it.

We aim to provide clear and accessible information to empower you to support your child's development and ensure they receive the best possible start.
