Dear Mayur Patel

 

I apologise, but we need to further clarify your request with regards to
your last two questions to ensure that we do provide with the information
you want in the format that you would like.

 

Question 5 - How much funding was allocated to pupils with SEN for
education in 2010/2011 and 2011/2012.

 

What areas of funding for SEN would you like to be included? Do you want
details around the level of funding for special schools , SEN (High
Incidence), SEN (Low Incidence), Additional Educational Needs?

 

Question 6 - How much funding was allocated to children in care for
education in 2010/2011 and 2011/2012.

 

Do you mean funding  allocations to support children that goes directly to
the school or  is it the total funding allocated generally to support
Looked after Children in Education?

 

As soon as clarification is received your request will be responded to in
line with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

 

Kind Regards
