Devon County Council do not hold this information. It is not possible to make an appeal to the SEND Tribunal for children / young people ‘not given the expected level of support under an Education Health Care Plan’. This is not an issue within the Jurisdiction of the Tribunal. As such, we have not allocated any funding to this type of appeal in any of the years for which the information is requested.
