A Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) Inspection is taking place across Cheshire West and Chester from 3 November 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As part of the process, the inspection team has asked services to circulate a survey, to capture the views of children and young people, parents and carers and practitioners in relation to their experiences.<\/p>\n

Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) are carrying out an inspection of the services that support children and young people with SEND.<\/p>\n

The inspection is over three weeks (Monday 3 November, to Friday 21 November) and focuses on the provision for children, young people and young adults with special educational needs and disabilities in Cheshire West and Chester.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The surveys will close at 9am on Tuesday 11 November 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
