High Needs BlockReview Principles
• Simplify the approach to the funding of high needs provision
• Establish a greater level of consistency in the funding of high needs pupils
• Establish more direct funding relationships between commissioners and providers – the LA becomes the commissioner for high needs pupils and students up to age 25
• Promote specialist settings to be less reliant on LA managed support mechanisms
• Adopt a model which is more responsive to the actual number of pupils on roll

Proposals have funding implications for the following:
• Special schools• DSPs, ARCs and Resourced Nurseries• PRUs• Primary Behaviour Centres• The District’s wider AP strategy, including the BACs• Post 16 high needs provision in FE settings• Centrally managed high needs provision, including

High needs pupils in mainstream Primary & Secondary provision
• Key proposals already considered as part of the Primary and Secondary consultation which took place earlier this term:– Continue to allocate the vast majority of SEN resources via
the SEN funding formulae – Shift the ‘threshold’ for funding high value statements from
£5,155 to £6,000 to replicate the national formula– Continue to allocate > £6,000 separately, based on the
funding categories framework, adjusted on a monthly basis
– Continue to employ the SEN Funding Floor to ensure a minimum level of SEN formula funding
– Continue to calculate a notional SEN figure & to separately identify all SEN resources within a school’s budget (I03 funding)
