  • Inform Key Judgements Made by Ofsted
    Agenda Item * For publication Bedford Borough Council – off Agenda approval October 2013 Report by the Portfolio Holder for Education and the Executive Director for Children’s Services, Schools and Families Subject: ACCEPTANCE OF GRANT TO IMPLEMENT THE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES BILL 1. Executive Summary This report relates to implementation of the Children and Families Bill (2013) which is expected to become the Children and Families Act in September 2014. The Bill changes the statutory framework in relation to Children with Special Educational Needs (SEN). The Council will have a duty to develop and implement the new legislation for more than 700 young people with Statements of SEN in a significantly changed way. The new approach is called the Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) often referred to as the ‘single plan.’ The Local Authority will have a duty to publish a local offer, embed joint commissioning, offer personalised budgets, develop a key worker role and develop a new statementing process. In addition, the new legislation brings together two statutory frameworks for pre and post 16 and the Borough will therefore have to extend its responsibilities to assessing and monitoring Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCP) for young people in education and training up to 25 years (Appendix A) The implementation of the single plan will inform key judgements made by Ofsted. It is critical that the council utilises this funding stream to deliver the change required. 2. Recommendations 2.1 The Mayor is requested to consider the report and, if satisfied, approve acceptance of the Grant which will provide capacity to prepare and deliver our new legal obligations.
