The mandatory information includes four components: 1) the number of children and young people with additional support needs; 2) the main factors giving rise to those additional support needs; 3) the types of support provided; and, 4) the cost of providing that support. A vital consideration following this reporting will be what we know about the positive difference being made by additional support for learning and how we can better demonstrate that difference. As an annual gathering of key people connected to additional support for learning across Scotland, the Enquire conference intends to spark ideas and actions that will further the understanding and appreciation of practice in the field.
