SEND support
My child needs support but the school says no. Start here.
This page helps you understand what the school can do now, what the law requires, and how to act if support is being delayed or refused.
Do this today
- 1.Request your child's support plan or current SEND records in writing
- 2.Write down what support is missing and how that is affecting your child
- 3.Record all dates, especially if an EHCP process is underway
