Hi all
My DD is 5 and a half and out of education as I am appealing her EHCP. She is no-verbal, autistic and has global development delay. She is not violent but does suffer big tantrums from her inability to communicate.
We named a local specialist school (not independant) in the plan which we feel would be ideal for DD, the LA said the SS had declared DD needs are not complex enough. So the LA named the nearest mainstream school, however i know the SENCO at this school and she told me 'off the record' that they will be rejecting DD as she is too complex. I then found out the LA forced them to accept DD (typical LA).
Long story short I am appealing the PLAN as we want DD to go to the specialist school and wanted some advice regarding the tribunal.
What evidence would you recommend I need for the tribunal to help my case? I am thinking of representing myself but feel worried when I hear that LA get in big barristers to fight their side.
Should I get any independent reports done? I feel like other than her EHCP & her educational phycologist reports I don't have anything else.
Any advise would be much appreciated x
