About this Event

Delivered via Zoom by West Sussex SEND Information, Advice and Support Service (SENDIAS) on behalf of Reaching Families

What is an EHCP? How does it work? What is the guidance for EHC needs assessments and plans? If you are unsure about the process and would like to get more information, then you may benefit from attending this workshop.

West Sussex SENDIAS will give an overview of what happens during an EHC needs assessment and what a good EHCP should contain. From requesting a needs assessment to reviewing an existing plan. There will also be an opportunity to ask your questions during the session.

Please note this workshop is funded by Reaching Families for parents and carers of children with special educational needs and/or disabilities in West Sussex only. It is not suitable for professionals.
