Question
What projections does the Welsh Government have for the number of children with additional learning needs (ALN) over the next five years?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
The Welsh Government does not have projected numbers of children with additional learning needs (ALN) for the next five years. A three-year phased implementation of the new ALN system began in September 2021. The Welsh Government has arrangements in place to monitor and evaluate implementation of the ALN and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act.
