EHCP stands for Educational, Health and Care plan.
Before an EHCP is provided to a child or young person, you need to apply to your local education authority (LEA) to request a needs assessment. You can apply directly to your LEA, or your child’s doctor/health visitor or a school SENCO can apply on your behalf.
Once a request is submitted to your LEA they’ll review the information and decide whether to proceed with an EHCP. If they decide to carry out an assessment, they’ll gather information by speaking to you, your child, and other professionals who know your child well, such as their teachers, SENCO and social workers. They may also ask you for supporting documents like school or nursery reports, and a doctor’s assessment. This information will help them to make a decision about whether or not to issue an EHCP.
