The financial outlook
The tide’s gone out for public finances

National drivers for change
To address this the Green Paper proposed several changes including:
• A new approach to identifying SEN• A new single assessment process and “Education,
Health and Care Plan”• Local offer of all services available• The option of a personal budget
The government identified 20 pathfinders to test out new approaches and models.

Coventry drivers for change
• In Coventry, disabled children are a key vulnerable group within the Children and Young People’s Plan 2011-2014
• SEND has been identified as an area for review and change – initial scoping work started from October 2012. Elected members need to give final sign off for this by end of November 2012
• The “SEND Fundamental Service Review” is the way that Coventry will deliver this change

To implement a new joined up model for Coventry children and young people with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) that delivers improved outcomes at lower financial costs by:
• Putting children, young people and families at the centre of the process and joining up support (education, health and social care) around them
• Increasing independence for children and young people by building resilience and capacity and managing expectations of public sector support
• Identifying needs earlier and undertaking assessments more effectively
• Reducing duplication, bureaucracy and ineffective systems• Improving the pathways towards adulthood

Ways of working for SEND FSR
• Collaborative• Engaging and consulting a wide range of stakeholders• Children and families must be at the heart of this• Evidence based – searching out good practice• Recognition of complexity • Clear and open communication• Setting out clear rationale for changes• Testing on smaller scale prior to larger implementation
