The Local Authority funds schools to support their SEND provision. Each individual school receives their own SEND funding from the local authority, worked out via in depth formula which takes account of levels of student deprivation and the size of the school population. Each school identifies specific interventions to use this fund and their impact is reviewed by the leaders in the school, which then monitored and scrutinised by the governing body
We use our professional judgement to ensure that the funding is distributed to have the greatest impact on our SEND pupils. We review this at school level to ensure maximum effectiveness and efficiency. We strive to ensure equity, transparency and clarity within our school for the money spent on all learners and their needs (please see budget statements on our homepage)
