No. The Welsh Government’s January 2024 Schools’ Census notes that out of 52,152 pupils with ALN (or SEN) in maintained schools only 6,025 of those pupils attended special schools.
The ALN Code 2021 requires maintained schools, FEIs and local authorities to adopt a graduated approach making ALP at the lowest level necessary to meet the child or young person’s identified needs. Para 20.23 ALN Code 2021.
