Early education and childcare - information for professionals

This section of the local offer is for practitioners and professionals working with children in the early years with SEND or emerging needs, both in Rutland settings or attending a provider outside the county

To support Early Years providers with early identification, we have created the graduated response flowchart to help guide practitioners through the graduated response in Rutland. Where practitioners feel a child will benefit from more individualised support, you may need to refer into our Early Years Inclusion service.

Where health professionals have identified that a child may have Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), they will complete a notification to the local authority called a Section 23.

For Rutland early years providers requiring additional funding for a child to deliver support that is above and beyond what is ordinarily available within the setting, you may apply for Special Educational Needs Inclusion Funding (SENIF).
