Do you feel daunted by the thought of applying for an EHCP?
There are so many laws and bits of legislation to wade through it can baffle and overwhelm any one of us!
The process is designed to be Parent and SENCo friendly - but the reality is different, we get it. We’re seasoned SEND parents and professionals ourselves, and we know all to well how overwhelming it can be.
That’s where our EHCP Day comes in…
Our highly regarded team of advocates will be at your disposal for a whole day to teach you all you need to know about:
Education Law - the different pieces of legislation you need to know and where to find them
Evidence - what constitutes evidence and why
Assessments, diagnoses and reports - the relevance and importance of each
The assessment process and your rights throughout
How to hold the council accountable
Appeals
The Judicial Review process - when and why we may need to explore this
Your mental health and wellbeing
Once we have explored all of this we will break for lunch and then we will get cracking on writing the application letter together! Our advocates will be on hand to assist you, answer your questions and provide all you need during this brilliant day of learning and support.
There will be activities to help keep you engaged and help you check your understanding throughout… Our sessions are always neurodivergent friendly and accessible.
Lunch and refreshments are included (as well as snacks!).
Ticket-holders will also get a complimentary goodie bag full of Sunshine merchandise worth £50!
SPACES ARE LIMITED TO 15.
 So early booking is recommended!
(The letters will be checked on the day IF they're complete and IF time allows. Anything requested of the advocates after the event will need to go through our advocacy service. Please see below what is included on the day)
You will need to bring:
All of your evidence (in chronological order preferably, for ease)
A laptop or electronic device to write the letter (please make sure it's charged up, so we're good to go!)

An introduction to the law surrounding EHCPs and the SEND Code of Practice
