SEND Services in Cornwall

SEND support in Cornwall is undergoing significant transformation as part of major national reforms that aim to make early help more accessible without families having to fight for it. The county has faced long-standing pressures on its services, but the government has committed substantial investment including cancellation of tens of millions of pounds of historic SEND debt from Cornwall Council's balance sheet, alongside a £4-billion national funding package. Every school in Cornwall will now be required to create Individual Support Plans for pupils with SEND, tailored to each child's needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach, while Education, Health and Care Plans remain available for children with more complex needs. If you're new to navigating SEND support in Cornwall, Cornwall SENDIASS is here to offer free, impartial advice and support to help you understand your child's rights and the options available to you.

As these changes roll out across Cornwall's schools, having a clear picture of your child's needs and progress becomes even more important - whether you're building evidence for an Individual Support Plan or preparing for conversations with specialists. JakTrack helps you do exactly that by letting you track the everyday details that matter (sleep patterns, mealtimes, behaviour) and spot the patterns that professionals need to see, all in one place. Starting early means you'll have months of real evidence to draw on when you need it, helping you feel prepared and genuinely heard in appointments rather than trying to remember everything on the spot. It's about giving yourself the tools to be your child's best advocate as support becomes more accessible in your local school. see how JakTrack can help
