It has been a while since I have played the tribunal game and I am starting to feel I may need to have an ed psych assessment of dd. I live in East Anglia. Does anyone have any recommendations? Or any ideas of the likely cost of an assessment and report? Thanks

I don't know any in East Anglia, but Ann Baumber in Kent is excellent and David Urani and Tony Macklin are good. The best I know is Peter Parkhouse in Weston Supermare.

Costs vary from about £700 to twice that, or a lot more for Peter Parkhouse as he has to charge time for travel to you (we went to him).

Options for getting help with the costs are
legal aid if you have a tribunal case
DLA
If you are looking at a special school, they may do assessments that you can use.

Someone will tell me if there is anything I have forgotten.

Thank you. Will try and get a few quotes perhaps from some of these. I would want them to see dd in school so will need to get them to travel here.
