SEND Implementation User Group

Project Scope

New users implementing SEND start out with only the implementation guide as a resource. Having additional places to turn to for assistance (eg forums, Advance Hub, FAQ and PHUSE website) substantially helps new users navigate the pitfalls of SEND implementation, offering them the opportunity to ask questions, receive answers and to discuss and learn more about common implementation issues.
