Special educational needs schools across the UK are under pressure, with many schools oversubscribed, overcrowded, and underfunded.

In March 2023, the government announced plans to change the special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and alternative provision system in England. The proposals in the improvement plan will focus on improving outcomes for children and young people, improving experiences for families, reducing the current adversity and frustration they face, and delivering financial sustainability.

The Institute of Government & Public Policy’s Annual Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Conference will explore the latest policies, guidance, and strategies to improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND. The event will dive into the SEND and AP Green Paper and Consultation, examining the proposed improvement plan designed to enhance experiences for families, reduce adversity, and deliver financial sustainability.
