Looking forstate schools please

There were many good suggestions on your previous threads.

With an EHCP the schools don’t need to be state schools, non-maintained and independent special schools can also be named in section I.

Do we need to pay for non maintained independent schools ? I don't have anyone to suggest.Please guide me through. Struggling to find a school and I don't know how to gi through the process. Can I go through LA or can we apply directly ? Thanks in advance

No, you don’t need to pay if the school is named in section I. The school is named in the EHCP in the same way as a state school is following your AR or early review. Unless the school is wholly independent i.e. not a state school, a non-maintained school or section 41 independent you don’t need an offer of a place.

To find a suitable school start with re-reading the suggestions on your previous threads.
