North West ADCS has recently produced a thematic analysis of the key issues emerging from the 15 Area SEND inspection reports published since September 2023. These include key improvement areas, and examples of where local areas are illustrating good practice to address challenges. This report also highlights the common themes of challenge/ improvement between the two tranches of Area SEND reports, such a timeliness of assessments, multi-agency strategic planning and sufficiency of specialist educational placements.   https://adcs.org.uk/assets/documentation/6_month_thematic_review_of_ASEND_reports.pdf
