Code of Practice
There is a Code of Practice for special educational needs which provides practical advice and guidelines to Local Education Authorities (LEAs), maintained schools and early education settings to carry out their statutory duties.
The SEN Code of Practice for Wales says:
- A child with SEN should have their needs met
- Their needs will normally be met in mainstream schools or settings
- The views of the child or young person should be taken into account
- Parents have a vital role to play in supporting their child‘s education
- Children with SEN should be offered full access to a broad, balanced and relevant education based on the National Curriculum
