The Leader agreed to Brighton &
Hove’s Local SEND Reform Plan: Brighton & Hove improving
support for children and young people with SEND from birth to age
25 (Annex A), as set out in Appendix 1.
The Leader agrees to the submission
of the Local SEND Reform Plan to the Department for Education (DfE)
within the required national timeframe (19th June 2026).
The Leader delegates authority to
the Corporate Director for Families, Children and Wellbeing, in
consultation with the Cabinet member for Children, Families &
Youth to make final amendments required by the DfE prior to
submission, provided these do not materially alter the strategic
direction set out in the Plan.
