We're so pleased to welcome a very special guest, Georgia, to our podcast. Georgia has first hand experience of H. I. E. as she had an H. I. E. event herself at birth almost 30 years ago. Georgia shares what life is like and the great work she does.
This is the first of two podcasts with Hannah Adams, Associate Solicitor and Head of Special Educational Needs at Shentons Solicitors, who has personal experience of the EHCP process as a Mum and who also helps parents navigate the system as a solicitor. In this first podcast, Hannah explains the basics of what an Education, Health & Care Plan (EHCP) is, who is entitled to one, who can apply, what can be included and what you can do if school is not following the plan. Keep an eye out for the second podcast coming up soon, in which Hannah will discuss the appeal process for those who either have had their request for an EHCP turned down, or who don't believe the contents of the plan are meeting their child's needs.
