SSIF Seminar - EHCNA (Education, Health and Care Needs Assessment)

SSIF invite ParentCarers of Children with SEND to their fourth Seminar this year. ‘Education, Health and Care Needs Assessment (EHCNA),’ is the fourth in a series of valuable and informative events for ParentCarers that will run throughout the year.

About the Event:

This seminar is aimed at ParentCarers who have applied for, or are thinking about applying for an Education and Health Care Plan (EHCP), but would like to find out if it is necessary or right for their Child or Young Person. We will aim to answer questions such as:

What does an EHCNA entail?

Which services are involved?

What happens after the assessment?

What is my role and responsibility as a ParentCarer?

We have a panel of professionals from the Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND) Team, Health and Education, who will talk about the assessment process. They will also bust some common myths.

We are inviting ParentCarers to submit any questions they have for the panel by email, by Monday 10th March 2025, via email, to [email protected]. This is to save time in the room on the day as our speakers will build their presentations around the answers to these questions.

There will also be an opportunity for people to participate in a co-production session to develop a useful route map/flow chart of the EHCNA process.

We look forward to seeing you there.
