FREE parent/carer guides to EHCPs
We understand that the legislation around SEND is lengthy and complex, and that the variety of information available online around EHC plans is overwhelming.
That’s why we created a free EHCP guidance document for parents/carers, or anyone supporting families through the EHCP assessment, planning and review process. This guidance will provide you with clear information about the key legal requirements of EHC plans, what you should expect for your child/young person’s assessment and plan, and where you can find further support.
We also know that it can be daunting to be faced with putting together a request for your child to be assessed for an EHCP.
- How will you know what sort of information to include?
- Is there a form to fill in?
- What is best to focus on?
- What other evidence can you submit?
So we also put together guidance on what sort of information and evidence to include in your request, which can be read in conjunction with the above guide.

Enhance EHC is the go-to solution for developing better education, health and care plans (EHCPs). We offer specialist EHCP writing services, training and resources to help everyone involved to meet statutory deadlines, improve quality and consistency of plans, and develop their knowledge and skills.
Enhance EHC’s range of EHCP solutions are underpinned by a wealth of experience and specific expertise. Established in 1996, we have produced over 190,000 EHC plans (previously SEN Statements), gained oversight of best practice across the country through our work with over two-thirds of Local Authorities (LAs) in England, and trained hundreds of EHCP writers.
How we help
We have been supporting LAs across England with writing EHCPs (/SEN Statements) since 1996. By providing flexible EHCP writing support, SEND teams are able to better manage variable workloads and dedicate their time to supporting families and working directly with schools and other professionals.
Writing an EHCP is a specialised task that requires specific training. Our EHCP support offerings have therefore grown over the years to include CPD accredited online training courses for a wide range of professionals, including:
- LA SEND teams
- Schools
- SEND support organisations
- Individual plan writers
- Education/health practitioners involved in EHC Needs Assessments
Courses range from requesting assessments and writing statutory advice, to drafting high-quality EHC plans – all of which are ideal for workforce development, new staff induction, ongoing professional development, and/or retraining for a career in SEND.
We also believe in sharing good practice information and guidance for all involved in the EHCP process, which we do through our various guidance and resources, including EHCP Knowledge Hub articles, educational resource packs and free downloadable guides.
