Bournecrazy · 13/07/2022 15:32

@Kc1999x yep I saw that today and commented on it 😩 now I feel like it's a no even though I had the SENCo wrote the part on the dla form, sent asd diagnosis letter and letter from Ed phyc too

Preparing myself for the worst incase my youngest is declined. Won’t be able to get school help with an appeal as it’s summer hols so they are seeing what’s on little ones file to see if anything else I haven’t sent can be used. Since sending the forms We have applied for an ehcp. Do you think the ehcp application we sent off would help in an appeal?

Kc1999x · 13/07/2022 16:03

@Bournecrazy i had the exact same feeling as you and I sent literally no supporting evidence except contact details and my son was awarded d

Mummy2boys1520 · 13/07/2022 16:04

@Crazybrood we sent his ehcp off with his and everything they summited for it. Then he was awarded it. I also sent the ehcp once's it was issued. So I would send whatever you had as I really believe that is what helped with my mandatory reconsideration

Bournecrazy · 13/07/2022 16:08

@Crazybrood weve applied for an EHCP too and it was mentioned in the application. Hoping that'll come through by the start of term

You must be in the same area as me s weve been on summer holidays nearly a week now and yes. If they need to get hold of school there is someone there but not everyone

Crazybrood · 13/07/2022 16:12

Thanks everyone. We only break up next Wednesday but I’m trying to get prepared now just incase. I’m hoping I won’t need any of it. I put no on the forms about an ehcp but both myself and the senco wrote on we are going to apply as soon as we could and last week the application got sent off. Hoping not got much longer to wait lol

Memum22 · 13/07/2022 16:21

Does anyone know if you get a text if you’re rejected?

Bournecrazy · 13/07/2022 16:25

@Memum22 not every one gets a text at all, I've had nothing just a letter to say we're sorry for the delay

Kc1999x · 13/07/2022 16:45

@Memum22 i think it’s just a letter of rejection, and when awarded sometimes a text or just a letter x

Memum22 · 13/07/2022 18:23

How long does back pay take after the award date? I just want to work out roughly when I need to ring if I don’t hear/receive anything 🥲

Kc1999x · 13/07/2022 18:48

im 22nd April scan date as well and mine still hasn’t been looked at, been with a DM for over a week. I’m getting fed up as well, and really worried he won’t be awarded and I’ll have to fight. Xx
