Local Councils throughout the UK have to publish a Local Offer, explaining the options and provision for students that have SEND.  Here are the links to different local offers:  This video from the Department of Education explains how the local offer details all SEND services and opportunities and that the local Council from each area that puts the options together must work with young people and families to work out the needs for there area:

In addition to a Local Offer, Councils have a SENDIAS service.  This stands for Special Educational Needs and Disability Information Advice and Support Service.  The information, advice and support provided is confidential, impartial and non-judgemental.  Like the local offer and EHCP's it covers education 0-25 years of age in the UK  for courses up to Level 3, so including Further but not Higher Education. 

The SENDIAS service understands the Local Offer and can advise and can manage concerns so:

• Parents and carers of children and young people aged 0–25 who are concerned about their child/young persons educational progress can talk with the SENDIAS in their local area.
• Children and young people with SEND who are concerned about their educational progress can talk with the service and get help.
