September 2025
In previous editions of the SEND Partnership newsletter we explained that Devon County Council is reviewing the way that funding is allocated to children and young people with Education, Health and Care Plans.
It's because the current system for deciding how much funding a child receives does not always work as well as it should. Families and schools have said that the current system is inconsistent and that it's hard to understand why one child gets one level of funding and another doesn't.
The council has appointed experts to help review the current system. They'd like parents and carers of children with EHCPs to help it come up with a better framework.
Parents and carers are invited to an online workshop, on Monday 22 September, 10am to 12pm; or Tuesday 23 September, 7pm to 9pm.
If neither of the dates for these online workshops is convenient for you, but you would like to share your views, you can complete a short online survey instead. It takes about five minutes, and it gives you the opportunity to have your voice heard.
This the first phase of this work, and there will be more workshops to follow in October.
