Question 2.2a: Establishments

Relase Note for SEN Feature Update 3.76.001

Children and young people entered in item 2.1 on the roll of the following establishments.

This question is a count of the number of initial EHC Plans that were made final by the Local Authority within the return year, split out by placement type.

  • Of those assessment involvements that counted for inclusion in Question 2.1 Step 1, look for the associated active EHCP Placement Record at the Return Date.
  • Where an active EHCP Placement Record(s) exists, use the external code of the Placement Type and count the number of placements for each of the valid range of placement categories, as detailed in the following table.

Exceptions

  • If a check finds that the placement type is mapped to an external code not in the valid range of placement categories (i.e. an external code starting with a W) it cannot be counted. In this case, One doesn’t count the student in any Question.
  • If more than one placement is collected, count the placement record for the base marked as the student’s Registered Base (STUD_HIST.REG_BASE). 
    If none of the placements are marked as the student’s registered base, then the placement with the earliest start date is used. One generates exception message SEN2_008 for that student for the placement category collected.
    Where an active statement/EHCP Placement Record does not exist as at the Return Date.
    If a statement is found to have no associated placement, One identifies whether this is because the first time EHCP has been withdrawn and the placements have therefore been ended when the EHCP ceased, or if a count is made for question 2.2a.iii.a:
  • EHCP Withdrawn:
    Where a first time EHCP has been withdrawn, look for a placement(s) associated with that EHCP that also ended on the date the EHCP was withdrawn. 
    Where there are placement records, use these and follow the flow in question 2.2 for Where an EHCP Placement Record does exist.
    Where there were no placement records active when the EHCP was withdrawn, make checks for final question 2.2a.iii.a.

Count for 2.2a.iii.a: Where the student associated with the EHCP has an Active Permanent Exclusion Record and has not been placed since their Date Off Roll (DOR), that student is added to the count for question 2.2a.iii.a.

Count for 2.2a.iii.d – Previously where there are no placements details and are not counted in 2.2a.iii.a and are counted in 2.2a.iii.d as awaiting placements. From Autumn 2017 release, where a child or young person is awaiting provision and he is not awaiting college places following compulsory schooling or young people who are Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEETs) then create a dummy base and a placement record with the ‘Placement Category’ as E_AAP - Awaiting Provision to count in 2.2a.iii.d, edit this dummy base to actual base and placement record to actual placement when the placement is allocated.
