Question:
To ask the Minister of Education to detail any work that is underway to support the publication and implementation of an Inclusive child-centred Integrated Workforce Planning Framework, as outlined in the SEN Reform Agenda and Delivery Plan 2025-2030.

Answer:

The publication and implementation of an Inclusive child-centred Integrated Workforce Planning Framework is planned for implementation in years three to five of the Special Educational Needs (SEN) Reform Delivery Plan. Work on this action has not yet commenced.

My department is committed to advancing this work at a later stage, subject to additional funding.
