Introduction to EHCP’s Webinar

If you are a parent or carer of a child with Special Educational Needs and want to better understand how support works in nursery and school, this webinar is for you. We will talk about SEN support in schools, how the graduated approach works, and when it is appropriate to consider an application for an Education, Health and Care (EHC) needs assessment. I will explain the process and timelines of an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) from application to final plan, and beyond.

If you are considering making a parental application for an EHC needs assessment, or your child's school is making an application, this is the perfect way to understand the process so you can best support your child.

Monday 24th February 7 - 8.30pm on Zoom
