Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many children at (a) primary and (b) secondary schools in Derbyshire have Education, Health and Care plans; and how many such children are receiving education in line with the plan.

The department does not hold the data requested. The department does publish data online in relation to special educational needs (SEN), including:

• Data on the number of children in schools with SEN, including those with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan or SEN support is available at: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/special-educational-needs-in-england. This data can be broken down by the type of establishment at which the pupil attends
• Data on all children and young people with an EHC plan, including those with provision outside of schools is available at: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/education-health-and-care-plans

The local authority can provide further information on children with SEN in Derbyshire.
