What the local authority expects a setting to provide - Element 2

Element 2 funding is determined by:

  • a range of proxy indicators that should;
  • determine the prevalence of SEN within a particular school

Some pupils may need specific, additional and time-limited interventions to help to:

  • accelerate their progress to enable them to;
  • work at or above age-related expectations

They are often targeted at a group of pupils with similar needs. Schools should use their Notional SEN Fund where it is decided that:

  • targeted (special educational) provision is needed for the child to make progress, and;
  • it is decided to provide the pupil with SEN support

Provision up to a cost of £6,000 per pupil is expected to be provided by the school from elements 1 and 2 of the schools delegated budget via the Notional SEN Fund.
