What Is an EHCP Appeal?

An EHCP appeal allows you to challenge decisions such as:

  • Refusal to assess for an EHCP
  • Refusal to issue an EHCP
  • Disagreement with Sections B (needs), F (provision), or I (placement)
  • Refusal to amend an EHCP
  • Decision to cease the EHCP
  • Health & Social Care (Extended Appeals):



Mediation Requirement Before Tribunal

Before most EHCP appeals, you must contact a mediation adviser
and must obtain a mediation certificate. You do not have to proceed with mediation, but you cannot appeal without the certificate.
The only exception is placement-only (Section I) appeals.

Appeal Support - Contact US

I can highly recommend EHCP4kids. At a time when I was feeling like I had no where to turn, Linda at EHCP4kids was a fantastic support. Her knowledge and experience is fantastic and she was able to identify gaps in my son's EHCP application, especially from the school's report, which I hadn't previously identified. Her calm and methodical approach made it easy to provide information. Ultimately the appeal letter produced resulted in my son being granted a needs assessment without having to attend an appeal hearing.

"Linda from EHCP4 kids was highly professional, an excellent communicator, she really knew what she was talking about and got to the nub of the issue. I liked the Zoom conversation before her report was written as I felt she could really get to know my daughter through me and I could ask any questions so I was better informed and the report was just the icing on the cake - something I could send directly to my EHCP coordinator that put across all the points I wanted made very succinctly. The fact that Linda is also the parent of an autistic child really gave her the edge - she just gets it and clearly wants to help when you really need it. Thank you Linda and if you're hesitating on using her services, don't ! Worth every penny xx"

Linda has been a lifeline to me. The Local Authority refused to assess my teenage daughter, Linda helped me do the appeal, and now my daughter has an EHCP for 20 hours a week for a specialist school. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without Linda’s help"

Linda's support during my fight to secure an EHCP for my son was nothing short of phenomenal. From our very first conversation, I knew she was the right woman for the job! Her knowledge and experience of the EHCP process and the legal system is vast and her attention to detail is incredible - she spotted gaps I would have missed and gave me practical advice on how to strengthen the evidence for my son's case. It was clear she knew the system inside out, and her confidence gave me hope when I was feeling overwhelmed.

Thanks to Linda’s tireless work and dedication, we secured the EHCP for my son. The relief of knowing his needs will finally be met at school is beyond words - it’s genuinely life changing. She’s not only brilliant at what she does but also a genuinely kind and supportive person who made me feel heard and valued. Thank you, Linda, from the bottom of my heart, I could not have done it without you!"
