This survey is for any group, professional, or organisation with an overview of the transfer process in a local area, including parent carer and young people’s groups. However, they are not seeking the view of individual parent carers or young people at this stage.

SEC is acting on concerns that a lack of resources in local areas is resulting in many children with statements not receiving their full entitlement to an EHC needs assessment and that the EHC plans resulting from this process are of poor quality. They are now seeking evidence of whether or not this is the case.

Please note:

• This survey should take about 5-10 minutes;
• They ask for your email address and the name of your organisation so that they can inform you of the outcome of the survey. However, all responses will be treated as completely confidential.
