"Information for local area providers, staff, children and young people, parents and carers

In May 2016, the two inspectorates, Ofsted and the Care Quality Commission CQC), started a new type of joint inspection. The aim is to hold local areas to account and champion the rights of children and young people.

 Under the local area special educational needs or disabilities (or both) inspection framework, inspectors review how local areas meet their responsibilities to children and young people (from birth to age 25) who have special educational needs or disabilities (or both). "

CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE'S DISABILITY REGISTER

Reading Borough Council has recently compiled a "Children and Young People's Disability Register". This can be found at  www.reading.gov.uk/servicesguide. This is a secure database which is managed by Reading Family Information Service. They would like to encourage parents to register so that they are able to get a clear picture of needs for services in Reading. There will be an online form to complete and the details will be used to keep you up-to-date with developments in services and other relevant information for disabled children and young people.

If you do register, you will be given an opportunity to sign up for a free MAX Card which offers considerable  discounts on major attractions across the country.
