Prediction

The current system for funding special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) support faces significant challenges, with increased demand and substantial funding deficits in local authority budgets. The recent Education Committee report called for mainstream education settings to become more inclusive, with access to specialist staff, appropriate equipment and an inclusive physical environment with a sustainable funding model. At the time of writing, a White Paper is expected which will propose reforms to the SEND system, particularly in relation to education, health and care plans. This uncertainty will continue to cause concern to parents and campaigners and we expect significant reforms will be made.
