ASD Pathway update - September 2018

The ASD Pathway remains open, but there are currently delays with assessments and we are working with Knowsley CCG (who commission the pathway) to take steps to address the immediate backlog and identify a longer-term solution. The Council has provided additional support to undertake outstanding assessments.

In the longer-term, the pathway is being redesigned and all services are working hard to ensure that this will  be in place by 1 April 2019.

Following on from the Draft consultation that took place in July 2018, here is the new Knowsley’s Joint Commissioning Strategy for SEND (Special Educational Needs and/or Disability) 2018-2021.
