POET (Personal Evaluation and Outcomes Tool) Questionnaire

“POET has been designed to capture the views of children and young people, parents/carers and practitioners about the experience of obtaining an Education Health and Care (EHC) plan and in some cases, a personal budget and related outcomes. The Children and Families Act aims to transform the SEND system to better meet the needs of children, young people and their families. The national and local data generated by using POET provides a way to evidence this change and influence implementation locally and nationally.”
 
There are 3 separate questionnaires, one each for: children & young people; parent/carers; and practitioners.
 
Questionnaires should preferably be completed online and can be accessed here.
 
Please Note:

• Parental consent will be required for Children/Young People under the age of 16.
• All participants regardless of age should only be invited to participate if you are satisfied they are able to give informed consent. The front sheet of the POET questionnaire should ensure help in making this judgement. If you are not satisfied that potential participants can understand, consider and agree to take part in the way that is described they should not proceed
