Education funding for children and young people with SEND

Special schools and additional resource bases

If your child attends a special school, they will be given a funding band which ranges from A to D. 

'A' is the lowest level of funding, and 'D' is the highest.

In exceptional circumstances, pupils with very complex needs may get extra funding. This will be on an individual basis.

Reviewing your child's band

Your child's band will be agreed before they start at a school / setting. Their band should be reviewed at an Annual Review meeting.

If their band needs be changed, this may need to be discussed at the SEND Panel.
