Redbridge Council is reviewing progress on improving services for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

Redbridge Council's Children and Young People Policy Development Committee reviewed a report in March 2026 detailing progress on improving services for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), which aligns with the national SEND White Paper's focus on inclusive education. This report addressed findings from a previous Ofsted inspection, leading the council to implement an action plan.

The council's action plan aims to address structural changes identified by Ofsted as key areas for improvement within the borough's SEND provision. No further discussions or decisions related to the national SEND White Paper, a policy document promoting early intervention and collaboration, are currently scheduled at the councils.
