Expert SEND Tribunal Support That Puts Your Child First
If your local authority has refused an EHCP assessment, refused to issue an EHCP, failed to provide adequate support, or named the wrong school, you do not have to navigate the SEND Tribunal process alone.
At EHCP 4 Kids , EHCPs are not one of our services. They are our sole focus.
As we enter our fifth year supporting families across England, we continue to specialise exclusively in Education, Health and Care Plans, EHCP appeals, annual reviews, amendments, and SEND Tribunal representation.
Book a 20-minute consultation today and speak directly with our team.
The SEND Tribunal can feel overwhelming for parents already dealing with the challenges of securing appropriate support for their child.
We provide professional guidance and representation throughout the tribunal process, helping families challenge local authority decisions and secure the provision their child needs.
Whether you're at the beginning of the process or already have a tribunal date, we can help.

Why Choose EHCP4Kids?
EHCPs Are Our Sole Expertise
Unlike many organisations that offer a wide range of services, EHCP 4 Kids focuses exclusively on EHCPs and SEND matters.
That means every piece of advice, every appeal, and every representation service is backed by knowledge developed through years of dedicated work in this field.
Entering Our Fifth Year of Supporting Families
For almost five years, we have helped parents navigate complex EHCP processes, challenge unsuitable decisions, and pursue better outcomes for their children.
Our experience allows us to understand both the legal framework and the real-life impact these decisions have on families.
Proven expertise in securing specialist placements, including non-Section 41 independent schools
Some children require specialist placements that are extremely difficult to secure, especially non‑Section 41 independent schools. The Secretary of State does not automatically approve these schools, making local authorities more reluctant to name them. At EHCP 4 Kids, we have proven experience helping families secure these placements.
Child-Centred Approach
Every recommendation we make is focused on achieving the educational provision and support your child genuinely requires.
Clear, Practical Advice
No legal jargon. No confusing language. Just straightforward guidance that helps you make informed decisions.
Support Across England
We work with families nationwide and understand how different local authorities approach EHCP processes and tribunal appeals.
Our Tribunal Support Services
Depending on your needs, we can provide:
Initial Case Assessment
A detailed review of your circumstances and likelihood of success.
Appeal Preparation
Support with completing tribunal forms, drafting grounds of appeal, and gathering evidence.

"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"

"From our first call with Linda at EHCP 4 Kids, we felt the weight begin to lift. We were stressed and anxious, worried, and out of our depth, facing a Local Authority that kept moving the goalposts.
Linda steadied everything. She read every report, explained the law in plain English, and turned a mess of paperwork into a clear plan for our son. When the LA tried to muddy the waters, she didn’t flinch; she kept bringing it back to what our son needs, and not what’s cheapest or most convenient.
What really stands out with Linda is the mix of brains and heart. She caught gaps in our son's EHCP, pushed for proper, specific provision, and helped us prepare calmly and thoroughly. She checked in on us, answered late-night questions, and never made us feel silly for asking. Because of Linda, we won. Our son has the right school, and we have a happy boy who is thriving in the right environment. Thank you once again Linda"
