Special Educational Needs: Horse Riding
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether her Department provides funding for equestrian activities for children with special educational needs and disabilities.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
The department provides funding for local authorities, schools and other education providers so that they can discharge their statutory duties relating to children with special educational needs and disabilities. It is for local authorities and schools to decide what provision to make available to support their education, and whether that support would include equestrian activities. The department does not collect information on the extent to which such activities are offered.
