Special Education Needs (SEN) -
The consultation document provides some commentary on SEN in Brentwood borough, and advises that BBC will seek to support further development, in the form of sixth form facilities, at one of the two SEN schools located within the Borough.
Local Authorities should seek to provide a flexible range of provision and support that can respond to individuals' SEN and parents' and carers' preferences. This should cover the full range of ages. ECC seeks clarification as to how the requirements have been calculated and the evidence that supports this approach.
BCC will need to provide ECC with all the relevant information in order that ECC can undertake a further assessment of the potential delivery and resource requirements, for accommodating anticipated SEN requirements, to inform the pre submission plan, and its supporting IDP.
