Transitions

Voice4Parents is a group of parents and carers whose children have a range of special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).  We gather the views of parents and carers to find out what’s working well and where improvements can be made across education, health and care services.   Your views help us identify key issues that are affecting families so that we can work with service providers and make positive changes.

 We are currently working in partnership with City Of Wolverhampton Council and Healthcare providers to implement a new SEND Strategy.  Parent Participation is required to influence and shape this.

We want to collect your views on how to improve the experience of children and young people with SEND at Key Transition Points.
We need to identify what parents and carers feel are the Key Transitions that impact families, what works well? and what doesn’t? and collect suggestions on how improvements could be made.
