Information for children taken into care is shown in the attached tabled.<\/p> The government wants every child to be in a stable, loving home that is right for them. One of the key principles of the legislation which underpins the UK\u2019s child protection system, is that children are best looked after within their families. However, that is not always possible and, as a last resort, local authorities can apply to the courts for a care or supervision order where the child is suffering, or is at risk of suffering, significant harm. In making their decisions, the courts must be satisfied that the threshold for significant harm has been met and that taking the child from his or her family\u2019s care will be in the child\u2019s best interests.<\/p> <\/p> Where a child cannot live at home, we must make sure they are safe and receive the highest quality care, which is why we are working hard to improve the social care support for children across England through our reform programme, Putting Children First. We have also established the Children\u2019s Social Care What Works Centre, whose initial research priority focuses on \u2018what works in safely reducing the need for children to enter care\u2019.<\/p> <\/p> In the Autumn Budget, my right hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced an additional £410 million for adult and children\u2019s social care in 2019-20. A further £84 million is also being invested over the next 5 years through the Strengthening Families, Protecting Children programme. This programme will support up to 20 local authorities with high or rising demand for children\u2019s social care services to improve the support offered to vulnerable children and their families. Through this, we aim to enable more children to stay at home thriving in stable family environments, and safely reduce the number of children entering care.<\/p> <\/p> Across the government, we are also tackling the problems that cause children to be in need in the first place. This includes better supporting those with alcohol-dependent parents, the introduction of landmark legislation for those affected by domestic abuse, preventing young people being drawn into serious violence, and unprecedented investment in early years education and support for children and young people\u2019s mental health.<\/p>"}

This is outlined in the statutory SEN Code of Practice.<\/p> <\/p> The school should assess the child, plan an intervention if a learning difficulty is identified, implement the intervention and then review the outcome and progressively repeat this cycle until the child\u2019s learning difficulty is properly supported. This type of support is called SEN Support and the cyclical process is referred to as a \u2018graduated approach\u2019 to meeting children\u2019s needs. This process should take place regardless of whether a child has been referred for an education, health and care (EHC) needs assessment by the local authority.<\/p> <\/p> Information regarding the average waiting time and the average cost of SEND assessments is not held by the department. However, information is published on the number and percentage of new education, health and care plans that are issued within 20 weeks of referral in the annual \u2018Statements of SEN and EHC plans\u2019 statistical release. Information for the most recent period is published in table 8 of the release found at the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/statements-of-sen-and-ehc-plans-england-2018<\/a>.<\/p>"}
