As a volunteer for a SEN Charity I am receiving an increase in number of parents calling to advise that support is being removed on transfer to EHCP from SEN Statement without any evidence to support the removal of the provision. I have just experienced the same with my LA removing all (yes all!) of my son's Speech and Language Therapy at Amended Statement of Secondary transfer and will now be headed to Tribunal for a 4th time.
I am interested in hearing if you are experiencing this loss of support. Another one that LAs are doing is to claim they don't have to specify the hours in the draft EHCP - watch out for that as support must be specified and quantified - none of the "access to" and benefit from" woolly wording. And finally the typical one that many parents aren't aware of; LA's not putting SaLT and OT as educational need and putting it in the Health section. There is case law to support S< and OT being an educational need so don't let them do this to you as you cannot appeal what is put in the Health section.
Look forward to hearing your comments.
