The meeting discussed the merits of expanding Cricket Green School, with the council setting out the strategic need to provide more places, particularly

for children with MLD and ASD

The on-line survey was sent to all parents with children with an EHCP, headteachers and SENCOs with a Merton placement, and professionals. It

sought views on existing provision and future needs.

Meeting with parents on 8 February

2018 to outline the council's

immediate plans for SEN places

The presentation outlined the dramatic increase in SEN statements/EHCPs, and that the greatest rise was ASD and MLD. Although the council had

increased 'in house' provision in recent years there had still been a big increase in independent placements. The planned expansion of Perseid

secondary/post 16 expansion by a further 28 places and the upcoming statutory proposal for Cricket Green was discussed. Parents queried whether

this was sufficient and questioned more details on Cricket Green, which the council confirmed would be part of the statutory consultation.
