The Special Education Needs process (SEN) involves an individual who takes responsibility for planning and monitoring the additional support a child or young person with special needs requires. Parents and guardians should be involved in discussions about planning SEN support. Those involved should be updated a minimum of three times a year on the support that is being provided to the child, with a report including the name of the personnel involved, and how progress will be monitored and evaluated.

Our Education Advice Solicitors are experts in providing SEN Legal advice. We have been involved in successful appeals, via tribunal, which have helped families in obtaining additional support by overturning the initial decisions made by the local authority.

It may be the case that the system has let you down and you feel that speaking to a specialist is the way forward. For an initial phone consultation please call 0333 202 7175 and we will do our best to help.
