Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) have jointly published a new framework and handbook for inspecting arrangements in the local area for children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
As part of the new area SEND inspection arrangements, Ofsted and CQC will carry out a series of thematic visits each academic year. We will conduct visits to a small number of areas to investigate a particular aspect of the SEND system in depth. In 2023, we investigated alternative provision (AP). Read the ‘Alternative provision in local areas in England: a thematic review’.
The theme we will investigate in 2024 is preparation for adulthood (PfA).
The purposes of the 2024 thematic visits are to:
•find out the extent to which local area partners across education, health and social care are working together effectively to prepare children and young people with SEND for adulthood.[footnote 1] This will include children and young people who are receiving SEND support or have an education, health and care (EHC) plan
•better understand what support local area partners are providing to children and young people with SEND and their families to achieve their full potential. This could be through educational pathways such as post-16 education, training or employment. Inspectors will also look at how children and young people with SEND develop independence, are made to feel visible and valued in their community, and are supported to be as healthy as possible in adulthood
•identify factors that enable local area partners to work together effectively to support children and young people with SEND to transition successfully into adulthood. This could include transferring from children’s to adult services
•identify factors that prevent local area partners from working together effectively to support children and young people with SEND to transition successfully through education into adulthood
We will explore how a range of partners in local areas work together to support children and young people with SEND to prepare for adulthood. The visits will explore what support children and young people with SEND receive, from their birth through all phases of their lives and education to 25.
Ofsted and the CQC look at specific phases of a child and young person’s transition to adulthood across the remits for which they are responsible. But what makes these visits unique is that their focus and scope will cut across all our remits. This will allow inspectors to look in-depth at the impact of PfA arrangements on the experiences and outcomes of children and young people with SEND and their families.
The visits will focus on understanding the impact of the support that local area partners are providing to children and young people with SEND and their families to prepare them for adulthood. The purpose of the visits is not for inspectors to assess compliance with legal duties in relation to children and young people with SEND. If, however, inspectors do identify significant concerns during the visits, it may lead to further activity, including inspection.
The impact of PfA arrangements on all children and young people with SEND will be in scope of the visits. We aim to understand how local area partners work together to make sure decision-making focuses on children and young people’s interests, aspirations and needs. We will also consider how effectively the needs of children and young people with SEND are met when they transition to adult services. This includes children in care and those with diagnosed or undiagnosed health needs.
The visits will consider all phases of a child and young person’s transition to adulthood, including:
•the extent to which early years settings and schools develop the knowledge, skills and independence of children and young people with SEND, to enable them to advocate for themselves, make choices and thrive in their communities as they transition through important phases in their lives
The scope of the thematic visits will be children and young people with SEND who:
•are aged from birth to 25
•are in early years, mainstream, special, AP or post-16 settings
•either have an EHC plan or are receiving SEN support
•live in or are the responsibility of the area visited, including those who are educated out of area. This does not cover those who live in other areas but attend an education setting within the local authority’s boundaries
All types of education providers are in scope for the visits. Inspectors will seek to understand how local area partners make sure that children and young people with SEND are prepared for the next stage of their lives and meet the 4 key pathways for PfA outlined below.
We will focus on the following 4 key pathways for PfA, based on the SEND code of practice’:
•employment
•independent living
•community inclusion
•health
As part of these themes, inspectors will explore:
Ofsted will carry out and lead these visits in response to a request from the Secretary of State for Education under section 118(2) of the Education and Inspections Act 2006. Sections 118(5) and (6) allow us to use powers of entry/powers to consider information contained in other statutes to fulfil any such request. This includes section 20 of the Children Act 2004 and the Joint Area Review (JAR) Regulations.
CQC will assist Ofsted under paragraph 9(1) of schedule 4 to the Health and Social Care Act 2008. If the visits involve examining the provision of NHS care or the carrying on of CQC regulated activities for children and young people with SEND, CQC will provide the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care with information and advice about this care, as required by their commission under section 53(1) and (4) of the Health and Social Care Act 2008. CQC will exercise powers of entry and inspect documents, as set out in sections 62 to 64 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008.
The team will usually be made up of 3 inspectors: one inspector from education, one inspector from social care and a CQC inspector. The thematic visits are quality-assured by Ofsted and CQC. Typically, quality assurance is done remotely.
Each visit will typically consist of up to 4 days of off-site activity and up to 4 days of on-site activity. The visits are planned to take place between spring and summer 2024.
Inspectors will have the flexibility to reduce the number of off-site and/or on-site days when appropriate, such as when we are visiting a smaller local area with fewer children and young people.
Some of the most emotionally powerful experiences result from the development, maintenance, and disruption of attachment relationships.
