Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many pupils have an (a) education, health and care plan and (b) a named school in each (i) region, (ii) local authority and (iii) constituency.

The requested information for each region and local authority is attached.

Information on the number of all education, health and care (EHC) plans, and their named school is not readily available at constituency level.

Information on the number of pupils in schools in England with EHC plans is available at constituency level here: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/special-educational-needs-in-england. The data file titled ‘School level underlying data 2024 (csv, 10 Mb)’ under the section ‘Additional supporting files’ includes the figures at school level, including the school type and parliamentary constituency. As these figures are taken from the January 2024 school census, the parliamentary constituencies are based on pre-election boundaries. Where statistics were published prior to the changes in parliamentary constituency boundaries, they will be updated to reflect the new boundaries in the next publication of statistics. This is expected to be in June 2025 for statistics on schools and pupils, including special educational needs.
