The Educational Healthcare Plan of each individual child or young person is dependent on the individual needs of the child or young person therefore their pupil premium level may be funded differently in each circumstance. For the avoidance of doubt, the estimated contract value may increase depending on the needs of the child or young person.Contract periodNot publishedEligibilityNot publishedOptions / renewalNot published

Procedure rationaleThe funding for these placements comes from the High Needs Block which is provided to local authorities to enable them to meet statutory duties required under the Children and Families Act 2014.The government statutory guidance on High Needs Funding 2023 to 2024 provides that publicly funded and supervised education activity within a national education system does not constitute economic activity, even in cases where tuition fees may be required to support placements. It is confirmed that the service level agreements fall outside of the scope of the Public Contract Regulations 2015, it is still however, best practice to have agreements in place to ensure that the placements are secured and that there are an agreed set of minimum standards in place. The Council will therefore ensure that is achieves best value. The award of the contracts is also compliant with the Council’s Contract Procedure Rules. The amounts that are to be paid per place are regulated by the Department for Education and the Council cannot amend these which is also set out in the guidance. |
