My LEA is no longer providing statements for sen for children, unless they need more than 18 hours!
Previously it was 10 hours. Schools have to now provide the extra hours out of their own sen funding.
I have also heard of some LEAs trying to stretch this to 20 hours.
THis is a joint 'venture' with social services and the health authority.
I have seen it in action when trying to get my ds's needs met.
As if things weren't hard enough already!
This policy comes into effect in April in my borough. How about everyone else?
