Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether his Department has carried out an impact assessment on the use of behaviour hubs by state schools in England on children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.

As the behaviour hubs programme has not been operational for a full year, the department is unable to comment on its impact. The effectiveness of the programme is being thoroughly evaluated. Part of the evaluation will look at the impact of the programme on specific groups, including children with special educational needs and disabilities. Early feedback from supported schools has been positive, noting the quality and inclusivity of the advice they are receiving.
