Whether you're applying for the first time, preparing for an annual review, or trying to work out what to do after a refusal — there is a tier of support here for every stage.
Clear, practical EHCP help for UK families navigating SEND support
The EHCP process can feel overwhelming — forms, reports, school emails, annual reviews and the familiar phrase “needs are being met.” Yet at home, you may be seeing a very different picture.
ADHD in Practice provides expert EHCP support for UK parents, helping you understand the process, gather strong evidence and clearly explain your child’s needs so the right support is put in place.
This service is designed for families who:
are unsure whether their child may need an EHCP
have been told needs are met, but home tells a different story
have a child with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties or wider SEND needs
are preparing to request an EHC needs assessment
need help writing parent views or understanding professional reports
have an annual review approaching
feel their child’s EHCP is vague, outdated or not being followed
want clearer information about SEND provision, evidence and next steps
This isn’t about conflict.
It’s about clarity, evidence and ensuring your child’s needs are accurately identified and properly supported — in school and at home.
Book an EHCP Clarity Consultation
£225 | 75 minutes | Online consultation
For parents who do not know where to start with EHCPs, SEND support or school provision.
This focused consultation is for parents who feel confused, overwhelmed or unsure whether their child may need an Education, Health and Care Plan.
You may be asking:
“Does my child need an EHCP?”
“Is school doing enough?”
“Can I request an EHC needs assessment myself?”
“What evidence do I need?”
“What should I ask school next?”
“How do I explain what is happening at home?”
This session helps you step back, look at the bigger picture and understand what may need to happen next.
It is not about rushing straight into paperwork panic.
It is about understanding your child’s needs, what support is currently in place, what may be missing, and whether further SEND or EHCP action may be worth considering.
Best for parents who:
feel overwhelmed by the EHCP process
are unsure whether their child may need an EHCP
want to understand whether school support is enough
need help preparing questions for school
are worried their child’s needs are not being fully recognised
feel confused by SEND language, paperwork or processes
need help understanding what evidence may matter
want a clear next step instead of guessing
What we cover
During the 75-minute consultation, we look at your child’s current situation and explore what may be getting in the way.
This may include:
your child’s current needs at home and school
what support school has already put in place
whether support appears clear, specific and consistent
possible gaps in provision
ADHD, autism, dyslexia, anxiety, emotional regulation, masking, sensory needs or school refusal
how your child’s difficulties are affecting learning, confidence, attendance, behaviour or family life
what evidence may be useful
what questions to ask school
whether an EHC needs assessment may be something to consider
what your next steps could be
The aim is to help you understand the situation more clearly, so you can make informed decisions.
What you leave with
By the end of the session, you will have:
a clearer understanding of your child’s needs
a better idea of whether current school support appears enough
possible gaps in provision to explore further
questions to ask school
guidance on what evidence may matter
a clearer sense of whether EHCP next steps may be relevant
practical actions to take after the consultation
This session gives you a starting point when everything feels muddled.
No jargon fog.
No panic.
No pretending the SEND system is easy when it clearly needs its own map, torch and packed lunch.
Just clear, practical guidance so you know what to do next.
Document review + 70 -minute parent consultation
For parents who have reports, emails or school paperwork but do not know what matters
The EHCP process often starts with a pile of paperwork and a sinking feeling.
You may have school emails, SEND support plans, behaviour logs, attendance concerns, dyslexia reports, ADHD or autism letters, professional reports, learning plans or notes from meetings — but no clear idea what actually helps your case.
An EHCP Evidence Review helps you organise what you already have, identify what is useful, spot what may be missing, and understand how the evidence links to your child’s needs.
This is not about throwing every document at school or the local authority and hoping something sticks.
It is about making the picture clearer.
This may help if:
you are preparing to request an EHC needs assessment
school says your child’s needs are being met, but you disagree
you have reports but do not know what they mean in practical terms
you are gathering evidence for an EHCP application
you are preparing for an annual review or SEND meeting
your child has ADHD, autism, dyslexia, anxiety, masking, emotional regulation difficulties or school refusal
you need help understanding what evidence shows unmet need
you feel lost in emails, reports and professional language
What is included:
review of up to 5 key documents before the session
70-minute online parent consultation
identification of strengths in the evidence
identification of possible gaps or vague wording
discussion of your child’s needs across home and school
guidance on what to ask school for next
support understanding what evidence may matter most
short written summary of key points and suggested next steps
Documents may include:
school emails
SEND support plans
IEPs or ISPs
provision maps
behaviour logs
attendance records
dyslexia reports
ADHD or autism assessment letters
CAMHS, GP or paediatric letters
teacher comments
annual review paperwork
parent notes or timelines
You leave with:
a clearer understanding of what your evidence shows
a more organised picture of your child’s needs
possible gaps to follow up with school
questions to ask at the next meeting
practical next steps for EHCP, SEND support or school discussions
Best choice if:
You already have paperwork, but need help turning it into clear evidence rather than a digital mountain of SEND fog.
Navigate the EHCP process with ease and confidence using our specialised support scripts designed to advocate for your child's needs in education.
The questions to ask are the ones that are hardest to dismiss. The ones that require a specific answer. The ones that move the conversation forward rather than allowing it to go in circles.
How to handle the most likely pushback because they will say something. "We don't have the budget." "They're fine in school." "Let's monitor the situation." "They don't meet the threshold." For each one — what to say next.
What to ask for before you leave the room: Written agreement. Named person responsible. Specific timescale. Next steps confirmed because a meeting with no written outcome is a meeting that never happened.
A closing statement is something that confirms what has been agreed, signals that you will follow up in writing, and closes the meeting professionally without burning any bridges you may need later.
Once you have ordered your Parent Script, you will be asked to complete a short form so I can understand your child’s situation, the meeting you are preparing for, and what you need help saying.
Please include as much helpful detail as you can. The better the information, the stronger and more accurate your script will be.
You do not need to write perfectly. Bullet points are absolutely fine. This is not an Ofsted inspection. Just tell me what is happening, what you are worried about, and what you want school to understand.
