Children and Young People with SEND: Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA 2024)
Published
The JSNA covers the current need of children and young people with special educational needs in Gloucestershire.
The latest Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) is now ready to view on the Local Offer - Support for Families with SEND.
The Assessment is a co-produced and collaborative document between key partners such as the local authority, health services and voluntary sector agencies. It sets out the health and wellbeing needs and inequalities of the population.
Seven recommendations have been made in the JSNA, which have continued to inform three key, jointly-agreed and locally-determined priorities around improved communication, access to support when it is needed and improved outcomes for children and young people with SEND.
The Local Area Partnership uses these priorities to commission a number of educational, therapeutic and wellbeing services for children and young people with SEND as part of the Local Offer. The JSNA is being used to inform the draft Joint Commissioning Strategy and the areas of focus in our improvement plan, which is regularly reviewed and refreshed.
