LLR SEND Joint Commissioning strategy

The Joint Commissioning Strategy for Special Education Needs and Disability (SEND) and Inclusion is a jointly agreed plan between key partners from the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) Integrated Care System. Partners include NHS LLR Integrated Care Board (ICB), local authorities, NHS Leicestershire Partnership Trust, parent carers, children and young people and service providers.

The strategy presents a collective vision and priorities, with a focus on working together to create improvements across the system. The strategy focuses on 5 key principles:

• We will work with children, families and young people to evaluate and plan change using participative and co-productive methods

• We respect and trust everyone in the process

• We work in partnership

• We communicate well

• We are inclusive
