We have been refused assessment for an EHCP for dd and are probably going to tribunal again.
She has never had a proper EP assessment. She is doing well academically but there are areas she struggles with which adds to her anxiety. She is doing GCSEs this summer, then moving on to A levels so I think the struggles can only get worse.
I have contacted a local independent EP and the fees will be £800 - £1000 which rather made me gulp.
I think that apart from the tribunal evidence, a good report will help us and school know how to help her and dd to know how to help herself as she is able and motivated.
She has a complicated profile with dx ASD and dyslexia, suspected sensory processing difficulties and mobility difficulties attributed to conversion disorder so I think that she needs more than a cursory assessment.
Are those fees par for the course? And will such a report be worth it?
