Events
11-05-2026 Informal Online Discussion of SEND Reforms and Schools White Paper (evening)
This informal online discussion session will be from 8 - 9.30 pm on Monday 11th May.
In this session, Our Voice will be discussing the Government’s Schools White Paper and SEND reforms which set out proposed reforms to the education system in England, including detailed proposals for reform for learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). Many families are looking for clear, accessible guidance on how to engage with the consultation process.
The purpose of this online event is to support parents and carers of children and young people with SEND to take part in the consultation with confidence and clarity, and understand the proposals so that you can feel equipped to share your own views and experiences.
We will discuss the key points, reflect on what changes may mean to you, and think about what you feel needs to be raised in response to the consultation proposal.
See our event flyer for more information.
