The Warrington Committed to Inclusion Mark is a pioneering quality assurance programme designed to drive continuous improvement in SEND provision across the borough. Now in its eighth year and endorsed by Chester University, the initiative is recognised by Ofsted and the Department for Education as a model of best practice. It supports schools through a structured framework of professional development, peer-to-peer reviews, and commendation awards for outstanding SEND practice. The programme promotes a consistent, graduated approach to inclusion and culminates annually in a celebratory SEND Conference. With 87% of schools achieving the award in 2023/24, the initiative has significantly raised the profile of inclusive education in Warrington.
