• To critically appraise the advantages, disadvantages, and/or implications of one particular area of the 2015 SEND Code of Practice

 

Critical discussion: critically examine the strengths/weaknesses, implications, advantages/disadvantages of your chosen aspect of the SEND Code of Practice using evidence from existing literature. For instance, if you have picked EHC Plans, which has replaced Statements from the previous Code of Practice, you need to critically assess how effective this new plan has been? So, you need to ask: Who does it cover and who is not covered by it? Are there any inter-agency issues since EHC Plans require schools, LAs, health and care professionals to work together? How are disagreements within EHC Plans resolved? Does the development of the EHC Plan require skills and knowledge that goes beyond the current capacities of SENCOs? Being critical means that you must examine the EHC Plan and evaluate it. Reading research papers will give you a good idea of the key issues in relation to EHC Plans. Read the attached Reading List for the SEND Code of Practice on 3321 BB. This will provide you with the current evaluation of how effective EHC Plans are, and what different stakeholde.
