High Needs Funding
With the permission of parents/carers, schools can submit an application for a pupil whose provision exceeds £6,000 per annum.
High Needs Funding is not a reimbursement of actual costs but an additional resource to support a school in meeting the pupil's high level of special educational needs.
Funding is approved for one year and a renewal will need to demonstrate how effectively the school has used previously agreed resources as well as the rationale for continued support.
