Gavin Williamson announces that the SEND Review is delayed until next year

SEND Review

The SEND Review was launched in September 2019, to look into the progress made since the SEND reforms of 2014/15 and help ensure that these reforms are being implemented as well as possible. The Review will also help to inform the revision of the SEND Code of Practice, which was also planned for 2020.

The delay to the SEND Review will mean that any revisions to the Code of Practice will also be delayed. The Review is now planned for release in early 2021.
