Attilla, I agree, but until someone takes them to court on it, the situation will not change. However, FWIW, in all my years working for this LEA, I have never, ever, heard of a child getting a statement just because speech therapy is required. Half the time they don't even get speech therapy from a qualified SALT because there are simply not enough of them. In this area, a child may be seen by a SALT for an initial assessment, thereafter, it is down to the school and the parents to do whatever work is required. Including having to make a determination as to where and how to move a child on once they show signs of progression. And now that schools are having to buy in to services that were once provided by the LEA, the situation is not going to improve. Speech therapy, behaviour support, SCS etc, are all areas that will now cost the schools directly and given that budgets are being cut, it is not going to be easy.
Anyhow, to get back on track, I would suggest that OP contacts the school, preferably in writing or by e-mail ( because you then have proof of what you say) rather than by phone, and asks why she has not been given a copy of the IEP/IPP s. I would also recommend that you contact Parents in Partnership, as suggested by nasrim, and if necessary, they can accompany you to meetings at school. Always helpful if it turns out that school have not done their bit properly, as PIP can make sure you don't get 'fobbed off' with a load of bull!
