We're inviting children and young people with SEND, parents, carers, and professionals to share their experiences of SEND services and support in Wigan as part of an upcoming Ofsted and CQC inspection.

Your feedback will help inspectors understand what it's like to access education, health, and social care support across Wigan, and will play an important role in the inspection.

🗓️ The survey is open until 9am on 14 October

Wigan parent carer forum is sharing this on behalf of Claire Williamson - Director of Education and belonging at Wigan council.
Wigan is currently undergoing a Local Area Partnership SEND inspection by Ofsted and the care quality commission.
Inspectors are keen to hear directly from children and young people with SEND, parents and carers about their experiences of SEND services and support in Wigan as well as practitioners that support them.
As parents and carers, we would love it if you could fill out the survey and encourage young people to do the same. Tell the inspectors what you think Wigan does well, where you have seen positive support and good practice, and where you think improvement still need to be made.
https://ofsted.smartsurvey.co.uk/p/AreaSend/10445335
The survey is open from 6 October 2026 until 9:00am on 14 October 2026.
If you need support to complete or would like to fill in a paper copy, WPCF will be available at MONDAY 12th October
Leigh Family hub link site A team Hub Trafford House WN7 1JH – 9.30 – 11.30
PCF HUB Ashland House Ince WN2 2DX 10 – 2
The views shared will help inspectors understand the experiences of families across education, health and social care services and will form an important part of the inspection evidence.
