Sheffield SEND Manifesto
The Sheffield SEND Strategy and Delivery Plan have now been published.
Learn Sheffield have been commissioned by SCC, on behalf of the Local Area SEND Partnership, to support improvement in SEND in the city.
In 2024/25 this led to the development of the SEND Manifesto proposal below (in both a detailed and overview version) to provide the basis for further discussions across Sheffield. Feedback on the proposal was collected during the autumn term of 2025: SEND Manifesto Feedback (October 2025)

Sheffield SEND Manifesto Feedback Summary
The analysis in the manifesto was informed by a SEND Enquiry which was completed in May 2025, just after the Local Area SEND Inspection.
The manifesto provided a starting point for the development of a long-term strategy for Sheffield for the Local Area SEND Partnership in Sheffield, which includes:
- Sheffield City Council
- South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board
- Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust
- Sheffield Parent Carer Forum
- Learn Sheffield
