Government publishes SEND reforms white paper
The government published its long awaited schools white paper, Every Child Achieving and Thriving, on 23 February 2026. It sets out proposed future reforms to the SEND system.
These proposals aim to improve earlier identification of needs, strengthen support in mainstream settings, and create greater consistency for children and young people with SEND across the country.
At this stage, SEND law has not changed and all the current SEND legal framework remains.
The white paper represents proposals only, and these will now go through a national consultation process.
Parents, carers and professionals can read the official information and take part in the consultation.
Family Hubs
Family Hubs are a great place to go to get a wide range of range of services and support for you and your family – all in one place. Services are offered to parents and children aged 0-19 years (25 years for young people with special educational needs and disabilities).
