    Yes. Section 59 ALNET provides that: “A local authority may exercise its functions under this Part to make arrangements for a child or young person with additional learning needs to attend an institution outside England and Wales, but only if the institution is organised to make the additional learning provision described in the child's or young person's individual development plan.”
