Next steps for Additional Learning Needs provision in Wales

July 2017


Price: £95 PLUS VAT
Format: DOWNLOADABLE PDF


This seminar provided an opportunity to discuss the future of Additional Learning Needs (ALN) provision in Wales.


It was timed as the Welsh Government undertook its Additional Learning Needs Transformation programme, which aims to create a unified system for supporting learners from 0 to 25 with ALN, and is underpinned by the Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Bill introduced to the National Assembly for Wales in December 2016.


Delegates discussed the implementation of the transformation programme which places an increased focus on early identification, changes all references to SEN to ALN, sees the creation of an individualised plan for each young person with ALN, and simplifies the dispute resolution system.
