SEND and Inclusion Strategy

The SEND and Inclusion Strategy reflects our high aspirations, setting out our key priorities and the steps we are taking to achieve our goals across the local area.

The Strategy has been developed from the outset with key stakeholders, including schools, young people and parent representatives from Families and Carers Together (FACT) Bucks.

SEND and Inclusion Strategy Action Plan

The Action Plan sets out how Buckinghamshire’s SEND Partnership will deliver the ambitions of the SEND and Inclusion Strategy over the next five years (2025 - 2030). It outlines clear, measurable actions across four strategic priorities:

  1. Early Support and Inclusion
  2. Education Sufficiency
  3. High Support Needs
  4. Preparation for Adulthood

The plan is a living document, updated annually to reflect:

  • progress,
  • feedback,
  • and evolving needs.

The SEND Partnership Board monitors the document. It includes contributions from education, health, social care, and parent/carer representatives.

Each action is designed to improve outcomes and experiences for children and young people with SEND and their families. It ensures timely, coordinated, and inclusive support across the system.

Feedback from families, including through the FACT Bucks annual survey, plays a vital role in shaping and evaluating our progress.
