Consultees

No consultation has yet been undertaken with school, providers or service users as there are currently no fully developed proposals suitable for consultation. Consultation with school on the schools budget will follow after half term. Subject to confirmation of early years funding by the Department for Education, consultation with early years providers will follow after half term. Further work is necessary on the high needs budget before consultation can be undertaken.
