If you or someone you care for has a disability, you’ve probably heard about Reasonable Adjustments and Digital Flags in the news. Here’s what they mean and what’s happening locally in Cheshire West.

Over the past few weeks, Cheshire West and Chester has been fully immersed in the new Ofsted and Care Quality Commission (CQC) Area SEND inspection.

On 13th November 2025, parents, carers, professionals, and partners gathered at Hartford Golf Club to share ideas and improve support for neurodivergent children and families across Cheshire West.

The Centre for Autism Neuro Developmental Disorders and Intellectual Disabilities (CANDDID) study team are evaluating the Neurodiversity Profiling Tool pilot and would really value your views.

As part of the ‘Partnership for the Inclusion of Neurodiversity in Schools’ (PINS) project the Parent Carer Forum has presented each of the 4 mainstream primary schools that took part in the project in 2024/2025 with a box of resources to be used as a library by children, parents, and teachers.

The PINS project is now underway throughout England and the Parent Carer Forum is working together with 4 schools in Cheshire West and Chester.
