The government's Green Paper is promising a revision of the Code of Practice in four years' time. The authors of this article have evaluated the impact of the Code, concentrating on three user groups, LEA staff, school staff and parents. The investigation encompasses fifteen local authorities. This is a substantial investigation which concludes that overall the Code has been well received by its users. However, there are identifiable areas that will need some modification.
