Many of the parents we support sometimes get a bit lost when it comes to EHC plans, what should be in them and what they are used for. Perhaps it’s been a while since you’ve looked at the plan, or since it’s been reviewed or discussed? Or maybe you’ve decided to dip your toe in the water, and this is the first time you’ve thought about looking at it properly?
Whatever the situation, this training session give lots of tips and practical information to help you get to grips with it. Split into two online sessions, this first part aims to help parent carers understand their child’s EHC plan and what’s in it, and how it is used. The focus is on answering the questions parents often ask about EHC plans and helping you feel more confident about the contents of the EHC plan.
The session includes
- The law, principles and foundations of an EHC plan
- What should be in the plan and what each section is for and about
- Being specific in the EHC plan
- The plan in use
The training is free and delivered by a DIAS Officer and Sarah Smith, DIAS Information and Training Officer. The main presentation last for an hour and there is 30 minutes at the end for questions.
