The SEND Summit: Policy Reform & Practice Impact

Supporting children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities is one of the most challenging yet rewarding of responsibilities.
The fourth annual SEND Summit will give practitioners and leaders fresh insights to shape practice in improving life chances for all children and young people with SEND, and in supporting families.
Organised by Children & Young People Now, this year’s event takes place on 19th June 2024 in central London.
As the overall volume of needs becomes greater and more complex, this essential event is for all those working across the system of SEND support - in all schools, local authorities, and other settings.
