SEND Local Offer
Devon’s SEND Local Offer is for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and their families.
Support for schools
Information, advice and resources to support Devon’s schools and settings in day-to-day activities and improving outcomes for young people.
School information
Search for information about specific schools and keep up-to-date with school and route closures.
Information for providers
Information and support for early years and childcare providers.
Working in childcare
Information and advice on working in or setting up childcare.
Why you must apply
All schools have a limited number of places available in each year group. So that you know where your child will attend and the schools themselves know who will be attending, every parent must apply for a place.
When to apply
Your child must be in full-time education at the beginning of the term following his or her fifth birthday. This would be at a school unless you decide to educate at home, in which case you should contact us on 0345 155 1019 for further advice.
