Join online DfE discussions about SEND Reform

Parents and professionals are invited to join hour-long online discussions about SEND Reform this December and January. 

The live discussions are with Schools Minister Georgia Gould and a panel of experts. 

They are part of the Department for Education's commitment to listen to families, teachers, and experts ahead of the upcoming Schools White Paper, which will propose changes to the SEND system next spring. 

Each session focuses on a key principle of SEND reform with the chance to ask questions directly to the minister and panel.
