This publication combines information from the school census, school level annual school census, general hospital school census and alternative provision census on pupils with special educational needs (SEN). The publication includes breakdowns by type of SEN provision (either SEN support or EHC plan), type of SEN, age, national curriculum year group, gender, ethnicity, English as a first language and free school meal eligibility. While schools were only open for vulnerable children and the children of key workers on census day, schools were asked to record pupils on roll as if in normal circumstances. The percentage of pupils with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan has increased to 3.7%, continuing a trend of increases since 2017. The percentage of pupils with SEN but no EHC plan (SEN support) has increased slightly, from 12.1% to 12.2%, continuing an increasing trend. The most common type of need for those with an EHC plan is Autistic Spectrum Disorders and for those with SEN support, Speech, Language and Communication needs. (Edited publisher abstract)

This document presents an analysis of SEN trends nationally and how these trends vary between local areas. It has a particular focus on: numbers and rates of children with SEN; types of need; profile of provision used to respond to these needs; spending on independent and non-maintained special schools (i.e. specialist provision that is used when children’s needs cannot be met locally). The latter half of the this document – the SEN stress-test – recognises that local authorities are experiencing different pressures. We use seven indicators to identify those who we think are experiencing the most pressures and stresses in relation to SEN provision. The first SEN stress-test was produced in 2014. This is the update for 2020. (Edited publisher abstract)

This report focuses on findings from completed reviews of the deaths of people with learning disabilities that occurred in the calendar years 2018, 2019 and 2020, identifying any trends that have occurred over time, and considering implications for service improvement. The analysis covers: deaths occurring in 2018, 2019 and 2020 16; demographic information about people who died 2018-2020; age at death and its potential influences; cause of death; circumstances of deaths; indicators of the quality of care provided; deaths of people from minority ethnic groups; deaths from COVID-19 in 2020. A total of 9,110 deaths of people with learning disabilities (622 deaths of children; 8,488 deaths of adults) occurring between 1st Jan 2018 and 31st December 2020 were notified to the LeDeR programme. In 2018 and 2019, for both males and females, the leading condition-specific underlying causes of death were very different for people with learning disabilities compared to the general population. Cerebral palsy, epilepsy and bacterial pneumonia were the condition-specific leading causes of death in people with learning disabilities age ages 5- 49 years. By contrast, in the general population, the condition-specific leading causes of deaths at these ages were related to suicide and injury or poisoning of undetermined intent; for females aged 35-49 it was malignant neoplasm of the breast. In 2020, the condition-specific leading cause of death in people with learning disabilities from age 35 and over for males, and age 20 and over in females was COVID-19. (Edited publisher abstract)

This statistical first release publishes data from the January 2015 school census on pupils with special educational needs and information about special schools in England. It also provides data on the characteristics of pupils by their SEN provision. The release shows that 15.4 per cent of pupils in schools in England have identified special educational needs (equating to 1,301,445 pupils). This has been decreasing since 2010 (21.1 per cent) and is a fall of 2.5 percentage points since last year. Nearly a quarter of pupils with a primary need were recorded as having ‘Moderate Learning Difficulty’ as their primary need – the most common primary need. (Edited publisher abstract)
