It applies to the following schools with a reception cohort:

  • special schools, including maintained  special schools and special academies
  • Defence Children Services (DCS) schools  and settings
  • all staff responsible for administering the RBA
  • headteachers and senior leadership teams

    • Removed guidance for the academic year 2025 to 2026, as this has now ended.
