Review

 

Regular reviews of the healthcare plan should be held at least annually and must include parent/carers and the pupil. The review should focus on pupil progress, effectiveness of strategies/resources, sharing new information and agreeing new outcomes. 

The SENCo needs to consider the following when conducting reviews:

  • all relevant professionals and parents/carers need to be invited to review meetings and given notice to attend.  Telephone conversations or reports should be provided if attendance is not possible to ensure that the support provided is the most effective.
  • relevant setting staff need to be actively involved in the review process so they can report on how interventions in and out of the classroom have been implemented and the progress that has been made. 
  • early years setting staff need to have time to attend review meetings, whenever possible
  • all relevant information needs to be available at the review, including:
    • assessment  of the child/young person's progress in the area of concern
    • information about the adjustments that have been made in the classroom and their effectiveness
    • information about how the individual healthcare plan has been implemented including how often it was needed, which adults were involved and how responsive the child/young person was.
    • any other updated information
  • the child/young person needs to be actively involved in the review as appropriate to their age and developmental level.

At the review meeting the following needs to be discussed:

  • How the additional support has been implemented - has the health-carer plan been implemented as planned?
  • What progress has the child/young person made in line with the outcomes that were set, if appropriate

There are a number of actions that could be concluded from the review:

  • the child/young person's needs have changed and the level of support can be reduced to encourage more independence
  • the child/young person's needs continue and the level of support needs to continue
  • the child/young person's needs have changed resulting in the level of support to be refined and possibility increased
  • additional advice from specialist support services is required
  • a referral to the Early Years Forum is needed.

If the outcome of the review meeting is that significant concerns remain about the child's needs and progress over time and they are likely to need significant support in school to access the curriculum, an assessment for an Education, Health and Care Plan may be considered.  Please contact the Early Years Forum for more details.
