  • SEND Information and Survey

    Published 05/10/26

    Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) are carrying out an inspection of services and support for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in Devon.
    As part of the inspection, inspectors want to hear directly from children and young people with SEND, parents and carers, and practitioners. They use this feedback to help them understand people’s experiences of SEND services and support across the local area.

    Complete the survey here: https://ofsted.smartsurvey.co.uk/p/AreaSend/10420455

    The surveys will remain open until 9am on Tuesday 13th October.
    Your responses will be treated confidentially by the inspection team.
    Please take the opportunity to share your experiences and views with inspectors.
