It really is unreasonable to expect a mainstream school to cope with the combined expectations of 25% EHCPs
Speaking to a Head last week, near 25% of the incoming cohort has EHCPs. Not just SEND - that list is bigger still - but EHCP. Either this system is broke, or there has been such a huge rise in special needs and disabilities that there needs to be a full national enquiry

This is a certainty. If the government starts to curb education, health and care plans (EHCPs) for our most vulnerable children, they will face an almighty backlash from MPs. Disabled children's legal rights are a red line in SEND overhaul, ministers told https://t.co/xkJEp35jf5

Bristol City Council's EHCP data paints a dire picture over the state of the process in the city. Not only do 428 plans have no named settings, hundreds are waiting over a year for their plans to be finalised: https://t.co/Jrs6pETAnY

A post from almost 6 years ago but so relevant today with EHCPs under threat but it’s now a #SENDNationalScandal
@SabrinaHobbs8 @stevenmwright @greatmindsmcr @rob_kelsall @NAHTnews @EmmaHardyMP @janetwillicott @HeadsRoundtable EHCPs only fail to work as LAs are failing to implement the SEND reforms and follow the legal framework. As our objectives say - no accountability #fixSEND and our children’s needs must be kept at the centre of assessment.

@louderry A gentle reminder that Lou means there are more SEND private schools funded by the taxpayer via EHCPs. The local authority reclaims the VAT. Mainstream private schools with parents paying VAT are down. Along with pupil numbers. Why would there be more schools with fewer pupils?

@ianrileyENG Any reason you are including SEND private schools where fees are paid by the LA via EHCPs & VAT reclaimed? We are talking mainstream private schools funded by parents. They are down & not opening. How you can imagine pupil numbers down >25k & no schools will close is beyond me.

@stone3Clare @TheScholar44 @louderry Yes I’m sure it’s fairly easy for a parent to find the £61,155 + 20% VAT to self fund their child at this SEND private school. Even though the school only accepts referrals from the LA. 52 pupils. All with EHCPs funded by the LA. This is one of the new PS Lou is talking about.

@WaterOrtonSteve @ReformShireHall The vast budget paperwork has EHCP bits on page 90/1 and p122/3 https://t.co/aZCVoJGeky There is a lot of work ongoing to speed up EHCPs which is then excessively panicking the financial modellers. The government needs to fix funding quickly and should get details soonish.

This is Pump Up the Volume stuff. Schools take money for the most needy children and use it for themselves. We've seen this in Bristol with off-rolling of students after they've been admitted with EHCPs. Let's investigate more of this, please.
New: 24-school academy trust “using EHCP and pupil premium cash to fund its central topslice,” union says chain has admitted

"It seems autism and ADHD are being regarded as conditions that can almost always be managed in mainstream or a unit, and that too many autistic children have EHCPs. The reality is, autism is perhaps one of the most complex conditions there is." This☝️
NEW POST: Complex needs, simple cuts: how vague, undefinable labels and lazy terminology could be a roadmap to rationing who gets SEND support. https://t.co/ZAB3HX51pE

@SEND_Action If we had no right of appeal our EHCPs would have been utterly worthless.

@EnarialP @RobbieRinder @Miss_Snuffy Yes, the SEND pupils with ‘mild’ needs that don’t need support. Ensuring legally required support is in place for complex SEND/EHCPs has nothing at all to do with ‘complying with school rules’. That says it all about your attitude and understanding of SEND.

@StarlightMcKenz @bennybennett8 @PCamhs D was in independent specialist that opened throughout. Maintained special schools closed week before lockdown. Our LA called all those with EHCPs weekly considering that sufficient, me included even though d was in school.

@warwickmansell £530k for one academy CEO. EHCPs “too expensive”. SEND support “not possible”. Procurement rules bent. Oversight deemed “adequate”. This is what centralisation without accountability looks like.
