This webinar will provide headteachers, governors, senior leaders and all staff with an overview of the core proposals from Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) for a planned new approach to jointly inspecting area SEND arrangements, including a brand-new inspection framework.

On 13 June 2022, Ofsted and CQC published their consultation paper and draft framework and handbook for area SEND inspections. The consultation seeks views on proposed changes to the way Ofsted and the CQC jointly inspect local area partnerships to assess how they work together to improve the experiences and outcomes of children and young people who have SEND. The deadline for responses is 11 September 2022.

This webinar will explore key areas of the draft framework, what the main proposals being put forward are and why schools, children and young people, should get involved in the consultation process.
