SEND -Ordinarily Available Provision

Ordinarily Available Provision (OAP) refers to the standard support and resources that mainstream schools and other educational settings are expected to provide for all learners, including those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). This provision is delivered using the school's own funding and resources as part of "universal" or "good quality first teaching," rather than requiring extra funding or a specific diagnosis to access it. The goal is to ensure consistency and inclusivity, with schools using their existing resources to support all children's needs.
