November update on SEND funding

Thank you for all the feedback and correspondence the Virtual School for SEND has received regarding the funding process for children and young people with an EHC Plan in mainstream schools/academies and those with high needs at SEN Support.

In terms of feedback to schools that applied, we have been able to move the timeline forward and feedback from the November Moderation meeting for SEN Support applications will be available on P-Lite week beginning Monday 3 December.

If you have any queries or questions, please email cs.educationvssendfunding@norfolk.gov.uk

Do not email any sensitive pupil level information to this email address. Spring term applications

The applications for the Spring term 2019 are for new applications for SEN Support funding for children with high needs who do NOT have an EHCP. You do not need to reapply for children who are already in receipt of funding as this funding is allocated until the end of the financial year.

If you have submitted your EHCP funding spreadsheet this does NOT need to be done again at this stage unless there have been any changes. If there are any changes, please notify us via email using the funding mailbox cs.educationvssendfunding@norfolk.gov.uk and upload the details via P-Lite. Do not email any sensitive information to this email address.
