Islington Local Offer

Information, advice and services for Islington children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities aged 0-25 in Islington.

The Local Offer puts all the information about education, health and care services, leisure activities and support groups in one place.  It has two main purposes:

• To provide clear, comprehensive and accessible information about the support and opportunities that are available; and
• To make provision more responsive to local needs and aspirations.

The Government says the Local Offer must be developed and reviewed in partnership with children and young people, parents, and local services, including schools, colleges, health and social care agencies.

In Islington, we have worked with parent representatives from local parent forums, the SENCo Network, other service providers and children and young people to plan exactly what should be included in our Local Offer and the best way to present information.
