CRIDE Survey 2026: NatSIP Online Workshop Discussion - Tuesday 3rd February 2026, 15:00 - 16:15

A preview version of the CRIDE 2026 survey was sent out to heads of specialist education services for deaf children in December 2025. This was to allow heads of services to review the questions in advance of the final survey being circulated in February.

If, as a head of a specialist education service for deaf children, you did not receive the information please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. so that the CRIDE team can check they have the right email address for your service. 

Whilst the survey should not be completed until the final version is received in February we would like again to offer colleagues who may be unsure about the process and who may have questions the chance to discuss with others in the same position.  

We will be holding a NatSIP Online Workshop Discussion via Microsoft Teams, on Tuesday 3 February from 15:00 - 16:15.  

Joining instructions will be published on the NatSIP Website on Monday 2 February 2026. 

No booking will be required and there is no cost to attend.

As in previous years the session will be facilitated by the CRIDE Chairs, Jo Clarke and Doreen Barcy, and Teresa Quail (BATOD). Ian Noon (National Deaf Children's Society) will also be present as a member of the CRIDE Committee.
