In this episode ofPondering Pods, Paul Stanley explains the steps involved in securing an Education, Health, and Care Plan (EHCP). We discuss the importance of thorough assessments, and what parents can do if their child or young persons needs aren't being met. EHCPs play a vital role in supporting children and young people with special educational needs. We also discuss the challenges families face, from navigating appeals to the need for independent assessments. If you’re currently going through the EHCP process or thinking about applying for your child or young person, this episode will provide insights to help you advocate for the support your child or young person deserves.
