Can't answer yes or no.:
Relevant factors include (para 23.68 ALN Code 2021):
- a conclusion that the child or young person’s needs for ALP cannot be met in day provision;
- evidence demonstrates that an essential element of the child or young person’s education or training can only be provided in a residential setting (for example, the learner requires a consistent programme during and after school hours that cannot be provided by non-residential schooling when combined with support from other agencies)
More:
>07.27 Is there a particular rule about when a child requires out of hours ALP?
>07.26 Does the term “waking day curriculum” have any legal meaning?
The duty to involve and support children, young people and their parents will have particular importance as specifying board or lodging may involve the child or young person to be resident away from their family: para 23.69 ALN Code 2021. The need to ensure that appropriate support arrangements are in place, such as those which enable the child or young person’s continuing contact with their family also need to be considered: para 23.69.
