This research by What Works in SEND researchers at Warwick Business School focuses on exploring the ingredients for effective intervention by the Department for Education (DfE) and NHS England (NHSE) when delivery of services for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND1) have serious weaknesses.
The aim of this research was to identify ingredients (antecedents, barriers and facilitators) for effective change in local area service delivery when DfE/NHSE interventions are applied.
There are four key findings from the research which focuses on the challenges and facilitators regarding intervention and improvement in SEND services in local areas:
- Leadership
- Partnership
- Workforce
- Evidence and Data
The research then considers the process of managing interventions and related challenges and facilitators.
[1] For ease of reading, we use the term ‘SEND’ to refer to disabled children, young people and children and young people with special educational needs.
