Derbyshire County Council has approved funding of £4,838,000 to be distributed among six schools as part of an £11 million initiative aimed at increasing school places for children with special and complex needs. This allocation is the first phase of a five-year plan to add approximately 500 places across Derbyshire, responding to community needs and recent complaints about the council’s SEND department. The investment aims to enhance existing provisions and create new opportunities in collaboration with schools and academies, ensuring equitable access to specialized education throughout the county.
