Children and Young People with special educational needs or disabilities (SEND) have a right to be fully included in their school or setting, and in all decision-making and planning about their lives.

The following sections of this toolkit have been created to explain what it means to have special educational needs, and things that should be in place to support you.

Views shared by young people in Bury about what is important to them have been included throughout; we want you to feel heard.

You can click on the following sections in any order. We hope that you find these pages helpful in understanding all things SEND!
