To help parents and carers make informed decisions for their children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)
Following on from the findings of the initial workshops in March 2020, we begun the daunting task of creating an information hub that was both easy to navigate but rich in factually correct content.
The site was Beta tested in November 2021 with parents and carers invited to give feedback before the official launch on 26th January 2022. Small adjustments were made, but the overall reaction was extremely positive.
In March 2022, we integrated Google Search capabilities into the site to deliver more accurate page results for users. This, coupled with constant monitoring of search terms through Google Analytics, helps the Local Offer team to ensure the most popular pieces of content are given extra exposure.
"Wonderful work as always Tom, thanks for all your help"
