Quality Standards for SEN Support and Outreach Services
These standards are intended to be used by all those offering SEN support and
outreach services, including local authorities, school clusters and special
schools, early-years settings and other provision. The standards were
commissioned by the DCSF and produced jointly by the South East and South West
Regional Partnerships. These generic standards are not in any way intended to
be mandatory, but rather to offer some common markers against which service
providers might assess and evaluate provision either delivered directly, or
commissioned, to help improve consistency.
The standards are designed to help lead to improved outcomes for children and young people with SEN and disabilities, against the backdrop of the five Every Child Matters outcomes, and the core offer standards set out as part of the Government's Aiming High for Disabled Children's programme.
