SEND Information, Advice and Support Service (SENDIASS)

SENDIASS is a one-stop service for parents, carers, and young people with SEND. It offers independent advice, information, and support about SEND services and processes.

They can:

• provide an independent supporter if you'd like one
• help you write your part of a statutory assessment
• support you in raising concerns with your child's school or college
• help you understand assessments or decisions about your child

SENDIASS users have made a YouTube video explaining what the service offers and how it can help:
