This is the next stage after School Action when the school still has concerns regarding your child's progress. The school will now move your child to School Action Plus and request involvement from a variety of agencies to give specific advice, assessment and sometimes actual support. This involvement will depend on:
- The progress made
- Your views
- Whether it is felt there is a need for more information or advice
If after this it is still felt that your child requires further help than that is normally available in schools, your child's school will collect evidence and submit the information to the Local Authority's Moderating Panel.
The Moderating Panel is a group of Special Educational Needs professionals who evaluate evidence to determine whether a youngster's Special Educational Needs are complex and severe enough to need access to more resources than are usually available to schools.
