The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) are the independent experts who advise the Government\u202fon which vaccines the United Kingdom should use and provide advice on prioritisation of a COVID-19 vaccine at a population level.\u202f For the first phase, the JCVI has advised that the vaccine be given to care home residents and staff, as well as frontline health and social care workers, then to the rest of the population aged 50 years old or over in order of age and clinical risk factors which includes people who are clinically extremely vulnerable and/or have underlying health conditions.<\/p>

<\/p>

On 24 February the JCVI published a clarification of their advice on vaccinating people with a learning disability. They confirmed their view that priority should be given to those with a severe and profound learning disability, but recognised the issues regarding coding of learning disability on general practitioner (GP) systems and supported a practical approach of inviting everyone who is on the GP Learning Disability Register for vaccination in cohort six.<\/p>

The National Local Growth Assurance Framework is published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. This Framework sets out Government\u2019s guidance on the assurance requirements for local growth funding as well as guidance for LEPs on carrying out value for money assessments on the funding it provides.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Solent LEP\u2019s Local Assurance Framework is published on its website and sets out how the LEP operates, including processes for decision-making, project approval and monitoring. In accordance with the Framework minutes of both LEP Board and the Funding, Finance and Performance Management Group meetings are publicly available on the LEP website.<\/p>

We are investing £43.5 billion into schools this year, and are committed to maintaining real terms per pupil funding in our schools. This includes £6.3 billion in high needs funding this year for children and young people with the most complex special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), up from £5 billion in 2013, and includes an additional £250 million, across 2018-19 and 2019-20, what was announced in December 2018.<\/p>

<\/p>

Institute for Fiscal Studies figures show that real terms per pupil funding for 5 to 16 year olds in 2020 will be more than 50% higher than it was in 2000 and more than 70% higher than in 1990.<\/p>

<\/p>

However, we are aware that schools and local authorities are facing challenges in managing their budgets in the context of increasing costs and rising levels of demand for SEND support. We are also continuing to engage with schools and colleges, local authorities, health providers and families, to build a shared understanding of what is driving cost pressures, and to work with the sector to help manage them.<\/p>

<\/p>

We are looking carefully at how much funding for education will be needed in future years, as we approach the next Spending Review.<\/p>

The provisions of the Children and Families Act (2014), together with the associated statutory regulations and Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) Code of Practice, apply to academies and free schools as well as to schools maintained by local authorities. All schools are required to use their best endeavours to identify and address the special educational needs of pupils and to apply the \u2018graduated approach\u2019 to support, which is outlined in Chapter 6 of the SEND Code of Practice, which can be found at the following link:<\/p>

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/send-code-of-practice-0-to-25<\/a>.<\/p>

<\/p>

Academies and free schools are inspected by Ofsted under the same framework as local authority maintained schools. The quality of education and support for pupils with SEND is taken into account by inspectors when making a judgement on the performance of a school.<\/p>

The new Ofsted common inspection framework for education settings, which will be in force from September 2019, places more emphasis on the quality of SEND provision through the \u2018quality of education\u2019 judgement, with a clear focus on curriculum.<\/p>

<\/p>

Academies are under a duty through the Children and Families Act (2014) to co-operate with the local authority on their SEND provision. Where maintained schools and academies are acting unreasonably or unlawfully, the department has the power to direct them to put matters right, if it would be expedient to do so. The Department of Education and the Education and Skills Funding Agency have a direct role here to investigate complaints.<\/p>
