The Government's response to the public consultation on the Special Educational Needs and Disability Code of Practice 0-25 years June 2014

  • Posted

The Government has published its response to the Department of Education’s public consultation on the new draft 0-25 Special Educational Needs and Disability Code of Practice and draft regulations last autumn. 

The consultation was intended to give members of the public, professionals and the voluntary sector a chance to comment on the amended draft of the Code, in particular the changes made to reflect subsequent amendments to the Children and Families Bill and on the structure, layout and accessibility of the Code, following the initial consultation.

The document is divided into three parts and contains the Government’s response to the following:

  • PART I – The consultation undertaken between 18th October and 20th December 2013 with children and young people to seek their views on the on the new reforms
  • PART II – The autumn consultation on the draft Code of Practice undertaken between 4th October and 9th December 2013, and
  • PART III – The spring 2014 final consultation on the revised Code of Practice undertaken between 16th April and 6th May 2014

I am so happy at the outcome, I don't think we would have had such a comprehensive service from any other law firm, and you took the worry away...I do not regret a single second of the whole process, apart from the bit before you got involved.
