What’s on this page

It explains about the different types of support you can access via Bucks SEND Information, Advice and Support (IAS) Service.

You can find examples of the types of issues that young people might want to access support for. This includes help with school/college, understanding EHC Plans, and how to get the right support.

 

Who can get support?

  • Young people with SEND up to 25 years old.
  • If you live in Buckinghamshire, even if you attend school/college in a different area.
  • You do not need a diagnosis to get help from SEND IAS.
  • All help will be provided confidentially. You can choose for your parents/carers to be involved, or you can choose to get help independently.
