Just had my son's AR (home educated ,has a statement for his autism).
All going well,them being complimentary, then talk turned to the EHC plans. Was told DS wouldn't go on one this year, then started talking about them and LA bod said not all children with a statement will go on one as if the child's needs can be met by the £6000 the school now gets won't get a plan. So asked how it affects home ed kids. She didn't know but said could always apply for SA again. I said so basically would have to send my son to school to prove he needs extra funds in order to keep his statement so he could go to college or secondary school.
She said his statement wouldn't be relevant then anyway as his needs would have changed. I said his needs would be kept up to date with the annual review. She said she would ask and report back to me.
Just wondering if anyone on here has any more information on how you can prove you need to keep the statement/EHC plan while home edding and obviously meeting your child's needs.
Thank you (will post in special needs too)
