What happens after I make a referral

On completion of your form you receive an automatic acknowledgment that your referral has been received by Leicester city SEND services.

This information will be considered at a fortnightly referral meeting held by SEND services team leaders during term time only. You will receive a response within 10 working days of this meeting, indicating either the referral has been accepted and the action to be undertaken by SEND services or that the referral has not been accepted - and the reasons for this with alternative suggestions for support/action, where relevant.

You will need to log back into your 'My Leicester' account to view the outcome. Once logged in please select 'my requests' found in the menu bar on the top left.
