Tell us about your child's return to education
A key part of the Hertfordshire’s parent carer involvement forum (HPCI) work is to gather the views and experiences of parents/carers of children and young people with SEND.
HPCI is now looking to find out how the return to education is going for your child/children. Please help with this information by completing the survey below.
https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/R2SchOct20
HPCI will share the results anonymously with Herts County Council (HCC) to help inform their work with families and education settings.
If you have more than one child with SEND then please complete a separate entry for each child.
The survey closes on Sunday 8 November 2020
