To approve public consultation on the Local
Area SEND Strategy
To approve formal public consultation on the
Local Area Strategy for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
2022-2025.
There are a number of strategies and plans in
place covering the county of North Yorkshire, which are
specifically related to, or include intentions, actions and
reference to, children and young people with special educational
needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The most recent specific Council
plan is the Strategic Plan for SEND Education Provision 2018-23
which was updated in May 2020 and which focuses on education
provision.
Despite these strategies, there is a need to develop a new Local
Area strategy for SEND that covers education, health and social
care for children and young people aged 0-25.
The proposed North Yorkshire SEND strategy is intended as a shared
strategy across education, health and social care and therefore
across North Yorkshire County Council and health bodies.
