Quality Assurance Framework

We are delighted to share with you our new Quality Assurance Framework for supporting children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). It is designed to support service leaders and professionals in monitoring consistency and quality for young people and their families in Central Bedfordshire.

It sets out the high expectations that we have in relation to the quality of support and processes that we seek and expect for our children and young people with SEND. It also sets out how we will continue to gather feedback from parents and carers as well as children and young people, so that we know where things are going well and where we need to continue to improve.

This framework provides professionals in Central Bedfordshire with a consistent approach to ensuring that our young people are safe, learning well, making good progress and having their needs met.
