Cuts
Dorset children’s inclusion services
Sector: Children and young people, Social care
Dorset County Council provides three statutory services (Special Educational Needs; Educational Psychology Service; Youth Offending Team) and a range of other services (statutory and non-statutory) working to improve the attainment and inclusion of vulnerable groups of children through the provision of specialist support and advice.
In addition to savings already identified, the council plans further savings by re-focusing staff on legal responsibilities with respect to safeguarding and disabilities, and transferring other roles to the Dedicated Schools Grant (in line with funding for other specialist inclusion support to schools).
