Additional Learning Needs (ALN)
Together with God, Everyone Achieves More
The Welsh Government is changing the way that children and young people with special educational needs (SEN) will be supported. The Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018 makes provision for a new statutory framework for supporting children and young people with additional learning needs (ALN) from the age of 0-25:
“To support the creation of a fully inclusive education system where all learners are given the opportunity to succeed and have access to an education that meets their needs and enables them to participate in, benefit from, and enjoy learning.”
The ALN system aims to transform the expectations, experiences and outcomes for children and young people with ALN placing learners’ views at the heart of the process. 
From September 2021, this system began to come into force with a three-year phased implementation period. A series of links and documents below provide additional information on the Act.
