Receiving a draft EHCP is an important step, but ensuring it accurately reflects your child's needs and includes clear, enforceable provision is essential. Our EHCP Draft Review Service provides a thorough, professional analysis of your draft plan to identify omissions, weaknesses, and areas requiring amendment before the EHCP is finalised.

We carefully compare the contents of the draft EHCP against all available professional reports and evidence to ensure that every identified need and recommended provision is properly included. We also check that information has been recorded in the correct sections of the plan, helping to ensure legal compliance and clarity.

A key part of our review is assessing the outcomes within the EHCP. We identify outcomes that are not SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-bound) and provide recommendations to strengthen them, making progress easier to measure and support more effective.
