We offer a range of services designed to help families navigate the SEND system with confidence.
SEN Support & EHCP Guidance
We help parents and carers secure the right support at school. This includes guiding families through the Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) process — from initial requests to reviewing draft plans — ensuring the plan truly reflects the child's needs and legal rights.
