What the Local Offer is

Essex County have worked with local families to launch a new Essex Local Offer website. This is part of their wider plans to improve access to support for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) in Essex. The new website brings together education, health and social care services that can provide early help. It also includes information about services that can offer more intensive support.

The aim is to help families find the support they need when they need it. Information is up-to-date and easier to search for. The site will offer advice and guidance if you are new to the SEND system in Essex. It also includes advice on what to do if you have questions about the support your child is receiving.

The new Local Offer website is part of our ongoing work to improve the Essex SEND system. This is not the end of our journey and we are continuing work in other areas. Every child and young person deserves to reach their full potential in life.
