What does a good Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) look like? (parents and carers)

Education, Health, and Care Plans (EHCPs) are a key tool in ensuring young people with SEND get the right support in education. This free interactive workshop is designed to help parents and carers understand what makes an EHCP effective, how to engage in the process, and how to advocate for their child’s needs.

Who is it for

This session is most relevant for parents and carers who are either new to the EHCP process, have a draft EHCP for their child, or are attending an Annual Review.

What to expect

You should expect:

  • a step-by-step guide to EHCPs and the key components that make them effective
  • how to request amendments and ensure the plan reflects your child’s specific needs
  • guidance on working with professionals, including schools and local authorities, to get the best outcomes
  • the opportunity to ask questions and hear real-life examples from other parents

Session details

This is a two-hour interactive workshop with discussion and practical exercises.

Takeaway

By the end of the session, parents and carers will feel more confident in reviewing their child’s EHCP and advocating for the right support.

Your feedback

"A really friendly training course on what an EHCP should contain."

 

"Having a child with additional needs can be a very isolating and stressful journey. The trainers were extremely knowledgeable and delivered the course with empathy and passion for SEND children and families."

 

"Definitely helped me gain a greater insight into the content required for a good quality document and getting the right support and outcomes for my child. I would highly recommend and I am looking forward to future workshops."

 

"I found out lots of useful information and felt very comfortable discussing my situation. The level of empathy with each individual's case was amazing. I came away with a better knowledge of what needs to be done and the feeling that SENDIASS is there to support me to get the best for my child. I would highly recommend this course."
