Additional Learning Needs (ALN)

“The Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018 creates a legislative framework to improve the planning and delivery of additional learning provision, through a person-centred approach to identifying needs early, putting in place effective support and monitoring, and adapting interventions to ensure they deliver desired outcomes. The legal framework established by this Act will play a crucial role in enabling the curriculum to deliver strong and inclusive schools committed to excellence, equity and well-being . It seeks to allow for a broadening of learning, ensuring that all learners with additional learning needs (ALN) are supported to overcome barriers to learning and achieve their full potential.”
