PACE Provider Spotlights help SEND families understand what your provision is really like before they enquire.
Many parents are looking for something different for their child, but they do not always know what exists locally or whether a provision may be suitable.
A spotlight helps you explain your offer clearly, warmly and honestly.

PACE Provider Spotlights may be suitable for:
- alternative provision providers
- farm and outdoor learning providers
- therapeutic provision
- tutors
- therapists
- SEND-friendly clubs
- holiday clubs
- animal-based support
- post-16 and transition projects
- supported internship providers
- community interest companies
- charities and social enterprises
- independent specialist providers
What a spotlight can include
Depending on the package, a PACE Provider Spotlight may include:
- parent-friendly written profile
- interview with the provider
- photos of the setting
- short video tour or PACE TV feature
- YouTube video

- featured email to PACE subscribers
- inclusion in the SEND Opportunity Finder
- “what parents may want to ask” section

Why this helps parents
Parents often want to know:
- what the setting feels like
- who runs it
- what type of child it may suit
- how sessions work
- whether parents can self-fund
- whether schools or local authorities can refer
- what experience the provider has with SEND
- what questions to ask before booking or visiting
A spotlight helps answer those questions before a family makes contact.

A spotlight can help you:
- explain your work clearly
- attract more suitable enquiries
- show your setting in a more human way
