Updated: 15 May 2012
This report sets out a summary of the key responses to the consultation
questions in Support and aspiration, current progress and our further
plans for the vision in the Green Paper, in which:
children’s special educational needs are picked up early and
support is routinely put in place quickly
staff have the knowledge, understanding and skills to provide the
right support for children and young people who have SEN or are
disabled, wherever they are
parents know what they can reasonably expect their local school,
local college, local authority and local services to provide, without
them having to fight for it
children who would currently have a statement of SEN and young
people over 16 who would have a learning difficulty assessment have an
integrated assessment and a single Education, Health and Care Plan which
is completed in a shorter time and without families having the stress of
searching to get the support they need
parents have greater control over the services they and their
family use, with:
every family with an Education, Health and Care plan having the
right to a personal budget for their support
parents whose children have an education, health and care plan
having the right to seek a place at any state-funded school, whether
that is a special or mainstream school, a maintained school, academy or
Free School.
