This consultation has six sections for all schools and academies, including Notional SEN and Element 3 Funding questions, and four more sections for LA-maintained schools only.
Schools are asked to read the proposals in the consultation document and then complete an online survey to provide their feedback to the consultation. We hope that this will ensure that as many views are gathered as possible.
