No, if following the School, FEI, or LA decides that the child or young person does not have ALN no IDP will be issued.
If the CYP has ALN then an IDP must be issued (ss.12 and 13 ALNET) unless certain exceptions apply.
Exceptions: A CYP will not have a IDP where:
- They are a young person and do not consent to an IDP being maintained: ss.12(2)(b) & 14(3) ALNET.
- An LA in England should be responsible or already is maintaining is maintaining an EHCP for the CYP: ss.12(2)(c) & (d) ALNET.
- In the case of YP’s who are not in enrolled in a maintained school or FEI an IDP will only be prepared where the LA decides it is necessary to prepare and maintain a plan for the young person to meet their reasonable needs for education or training.
