Specific considerations for educational provision for children and young people with EHC plans
section_content: Due to the unprecedented circumstances presented by the coronavirus outbreak,
the duty to secure the special educational provision specified in EHC plans
has been temporarily modified so that local authorities must use ‘reasonable
endeavours’ to secure the provision. We have published detailed guidance
alongside these temporary
changes.
Local authorities and educational providers will need to work closely together
to consider what can reasonably be provided to support children and young
people with EHC plans. This will include work with health partners to ensure
services for additional support and early help, for example around anxiety,
mental health, behaviour, social care, or changes to mobility, will be
available, being mindful that these considerations could apply to pupils and
students who they did not previously affect. Similarly, they should work
together to ensure key support services - in particular home-to-school
transport - are available.

High needs funding
section_content: Local authorities have an important role in making sure that the high needs
funding they receive as part of their DSG is used effectively in making
educational provision for children and young people up to the age of 25 with
Education, Health and Care (EHC) plans, and other vulnerable children and
young people. Authorities will continue to receive their high needs budgets
and should continue to pay top-up and other high needs funding so that the
employment and payment of staff supporting children and young people with
special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), and those requiring
alternative provision, can continue. High needs funding will therefore
continue to be paid to the following types of setting, whether from local or
central government:

local authority-maintained schools (mainstream, special and pupil referral units)
academies and free schools (mainstream, special and alternative provision)
non-maintained special schools
independent schools, including independent special schools
independent alternative provision
high needs places in further education (FE) colleges and sixth form colleges
special post-16 providers
hospital schools

Funding will be maintained and should not be reduced because some or all
children and young people are not in attendance (because of sickness or self-
isolation, or where the institution has temporarily or partially closed).
Similarly, where settings pay top-up or other funding for pupils attending
alternative provision, or pay for other SEND or alternative provision
services, these payments should continue to be made so that teachers and other
staff in all types of setting can be paid in accordance with their existing
employment contracts. If placements and services for the summer term have not
yet been agreed, settings should be willing to fund on the basis of previous
patterns of placements and commissioning. Where changes to the delivery of
special provision and alternative provision are required, the first response
should be to redeploy existing resources, if necessary between settings and
other institutions as well as within settings.
Teaching and non-teaching staff (administration, operations, maintenance and
catering) should not be furloughed where they are funded from continued high
needs funding, and where necessary and feasible, should be available for
redeployment within settings and in other settings to assist in maintaining
provision for vulnerable children and young people, and the children of
critical workers.

section_headers: Special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)
section_content: This list of SEND resources has been developed with a focus on accessibility
and inclusivity and is based on the recommendations of:

trusted organisations
charities
multi-academy trusts
special education headteachers

The vast majority of the resources on this list are suitable for both parents
and teachers to use in supporting the home learning of children and young
people with SEND.
We encourage parents, teachers and schools to explore beyond this list to
identify what support is best for their children and pupils with SEND.
