Clear, compassionate guidance through every stage of the SEND process
Navigating the EHCP process can feel overwhelming. You’re trying to advocate for your child, understand complex SEND law, and make decisions that shape their future — all while juggling everyday life.
Our SEND parent support is designed to make this journey calmer, clearer, and fully aligned with the legal framework, so you can feel confident and supported every step of the way.
We provide practical, emotionally‑attuned support that helps you understand your rights, organise your evidence, and make informed decisions about your child’s education. Everything we offer is grounded in clarity and empowerment.
Our SEN consultants have been SENCOs for more than 15 years, bringing deep, practical insight from inside schools. They understand how decisions are made, what evidence is needed, and how to present your child’s needs in a way that leads to meaningful support.
Support with Requesting an EHC Needs Assessment
A strong request is the foundation of a successful EHCP. We help you understand the legal criteria, organise your evidence, and prepare a clear, robust application that reflects your child’s needs.
This includes:
Understanding what the Local Authority must consider
Reviewing your child’s strengths and needs
Helping you organise supporting evidence
Drafting a clear, persuasive request letter
Typical time: 3–5 hours
EHCP Review Support
A legally sound EHCP must be specific, quantified, and based on clear evidence. We work with you to review your draft plan and identify where wording needs strengthening.
This includes:
Section‑by‑section review with clear explanations
Identifying vague or unlawful wording
Suggested improvements for Sections B and F
Guidance on how to request amendments
Typical time: 3–5 hours
Support with School and Placement Options
Choosing the right setting can feel daunting. We help you explore suitable mainstream, specialist, or alternative provisions based on your child’s profile, strengths, and needs.
This includes:
Understanding what different settings can offer
Exploring local and out‑of‑area options
Guidance on evaluating suitability
Support with next steps and communication
Typical time: ~1 hour per setting type/ar
Simple Transparent Pricing
All SEND parent support and EHCP guidance is charged at £85 per hour
You only pay for the time you need, and we always provide an estimate before beginning any work.

To help you feel confident, informed, and supported as you advocate for your child — without feeling alone in the process
