Footnotes

  1. Data on ceased plans changed from 2023 to include a more comprehensive set of reasons for plans ending. Data was collected for all plans that ended. Prior to 2023, data on ceased plans only covered children of compulsory school age and care should be taken when comparing across this period.
  2. Data on movements between different setting types is not yet available for the 2022 calendar year. This is expected to be added to the latest publication in a future update.
  3. From 2023, the data collection changed from aggregated figures at local authority level, to a person level collection. This has been a major change in approach and as such care should be taken with comparisons across this period. Further detail on the change is provided in the publication and supporting methodology.
  4. Data is not shown for a small number of local authorities for 2022 while further data checks are ongoing. This is denoted by 'x'.
  5. Data for 2022 is not yet available
  6. The number of reasons reported on for an EHC plan ceasing was expanded from 2022. As a result, the figures recorded under 'other reasons' are not consistent over time and care should be taken when comparing across years.
