SEND Transformation Sessions

On 16th and 17th March 2021, Parent Carer Forum Devon hosted two open sessions so that parent carers could hear about SEND Transformation in Devon and share their views.

We invited Helen Molteno who is the SEND Transformation Lead. First she described the SEND Vision and Strategy and then she asked for feedback to help design the service.

As you can see in the videos, we had some lively discussions and parent carers shared their experiences.

As a result of what parent carers have told her, Helen will work with Devon County Council to make sure that the service design works well for all our families.
