Help from: Special Educational Needs Regional Partnerships

The Department for Education and Skills set up 11 Special Educational Needs Regional Partnerships after a 1997 Government report, Excellence for All Children, highlighted a need to improve the consistency of special educational needs provision across the country.

The partnerships aim to help local authorities and other providers to work together, so they can share experience,knowledge and, where possible, plan and develop services as a region rather than individually.

The regional partnerships cover all the local authorities in England.

Each one has its own web site, with details of the work they have done, current projects and future plans.

Practitioners can subscribe to a quarterly newsletter.
