Sheffield SEND Strategy

The Sheffield SEND Strategy has now been published on the Local SEND Offer website.

Sheffield SEND Strategy

It has been created by the Local Area SEND Partnership, which includes Sheffield City Council, South Yorkshire ICB, Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust, Sheffield Parent Carer Forum and Learn Sheffield.

Our SEND strategy, Shaped By What's Around Us, builds on the SEND Manifesto published in July 2025 and has children, young people and their families at its heart. Briefly, the three priorities are:

  1. Workforce & Structures
    Creating the workforce that Sheffield children and families need
  2. Processes
    Developing processes that work for everyone and lead to better outcomes
  3. Governance & Accountability
    Redesign the system to ensure we make fair decisions and we do what we said
