ALN - Specialist Services

 

All of our ALN pupils will have either a Learner Profile or an Individual Education Plan, depending on whether they have transferred to the new ALN system that comes into force in September 2021 (see ALN Reforms section for further information). This will help inform teachers and others working with the pupil of specific strategies in order to help this pupil achieve.
