The 228 independent schools catering wholly or mainly for pupils with special educational needs which opened between 1 September 2005 and 31 August 2008 are listed alphabetically below in local authority order.The Education Act 2002 amended the definition of an independent school to include institutions providing full time education for one or more pupils with a statement of special educational needs or a looked after child. This resulted in a number of children's homes which provide education on the premises registering as independent schools.

Tim Loughton: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what duties are placed on (a) headmasters and
(b) governors of independent schools to report suspicions of child abuse by members of staff. [210441]
Mr. Stephen Twigg: [holding answer 24 January 2005]:
The duty to report suspicions of child abuse by members of staff in independent schools is placed on proprietors rather than head
teachers and governors. Proprietors are required to make a report to my Department when they have ceased to use a person's services,
or when a person has ceased to provide their services, on grounds that they are unsuitable to work with children, on grounds of
misconduct, or on grounds relating to the person's health where issues are raised about the safety or welfare of children.
Proprietors of independent schools have a duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of pupils at their school and must ensure that
their school has procedures for dealing with allegations of abuse against staff which comply with locally agreed inter-agency
procedures.

Tim Loughton: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what the duties of independent schools will be under the terms
of the Children Act 2004. [203279]
Mr. Miliband: The Children Act 2004 does not put duties on independent schools in relation to safeguarding and promoting the welfare
of children. However, it will affect the way that they carry out their duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of pupils under
S157 of the 2002 Education Act and the 2003 Standards Regulations.
Section 12 of The Children Act 2004 provides for the establishment of a national network of databases, or Indexes, to support better
information sharing about the needs of children between practitioners working in children's services. These databases will contain
basic identifying data for each child, contact details for professionals working with the child and a facility to indicate that a
professional has a concern about a child. Proprietors of independent schools are under a duty to disclose information to Indexes
once they are established.
I will write to the hon. Member with a fuller explanation.
