How to make best use of Route 66 with EHCPs
The law says:
“If a registered pupil or a student at a school or other institution has special educational needs, the appropriate authority must, in exercising its functions in relation to the school or other institution, use its best endeavours to secure that the special educational provision called for by the pupil’s or student’s special educational needs is made.”
(Section 66 of the Children and Families Act 2014)
This ‘best endeavours’ duty applies to all children with SEN whether they have an Education Health and Care Plan, a statement of SEN, or neither. This means that the governing body, proprietor or management committee of the setting must use their ‘best endeavours’ to secure the special educational provision.
Independent SEND Consultant, Garry Freeman discusses the meaning of the Best Endeavours duty in Section 66 of the Children and Families Act 2014. His training session goes on to explain how to use this in a claim to the Local Authority if a school finds it difficult to implement Section F provisions in an EHCP.
