Parents of disabled children 'still not happy' with care provided by Dudley Council

A report published by Ofsted says “too many” parents continue to feel “let down” by the local area systems for children and young people with Special Education Needs or Disabilities (SEND).

According to the report, a “significant” proportion of parents and carers say that services have not improved over time.

The concerns of parents and carers link to a wide range of areas, including the assessment process, the timeliness and quality of Education Health Care plans, communication with local area officers and the child and adolescent mental health services.
