The HEFA guidance is to be used alongside the Special Educational Needs and Disability Code of Practice: 0 to 25 Years (January 2015).
It sets out information about the provision the Local Authority expects to be available across education, health and social care for children and young people who have SEN or are disabled, including those who do not have Education, Health and Care (EHC) plans.
It has been drawn up by education, health and care professionals, multi-disciplinary working groups (including parents and representatives from the voluntary and community sector) and will be updated over the coming years as development and review occur.
