The Government has announced a major review into the support offered to children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). It said the review, which follows a £700m funding boost in last week's Spending Round, aimed to end the 'postcode lottery' of provision and improve the way families were supported. The Department for Education (DfE) will examine how the system has evolved since the launch of Education Health and Care plans in 2014 and explore the role of health care in SEND. Since 2014 the number of children with Education, Health and Care plans has increased by nearly 50%.
