This Order appoints the 1st September 2005 as the day on which the Supplement to the Code of Practice on the Identification and Assessment of Special Educational Needs (the Supplement) shall come into operation.
This Supplement (pursuant to Article 4 of the Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1996 (“the 1996 Order”)) gives practical guidance in respect of the discharge by Education and Library Boards and the Boards of Governors of grant-aided schools of their functions under Part II of the 1996 Order as amended by the Special Educational Needs and Disability (Northern Ireland) Order 2005.
The Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Code of Practice on the Identification and Assessment of Special Educational Needs (the Code of Practice). Schools, Boards and Boards of Governors and, on appeal, the Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal (SENDIST) should have regard to the provisions of both the Code of Practice and the Supplement.
Copies of the Supplement and the Code of Practice can be obtained from the Department of Education, Rathgael House, 43 Balloo Road, Bangor, Co Down BT19 7PR.
