Anita Chopra Consultancy Ltd

We appealed our Sons given secondary school option. It was our last choice but the closet school to our home. Our son needed a specific school environment to cater for his specific learning and development that our first choice secondary school would provide. Anita helped us through the School Appeal process with the Local Authority. She explained our position and gave us real expectation levels in terms of the success of our personal case that was a long shot. After collating all information in relation to the appeal she provided a bundle of all the evidence to support our case to the LA. We also used a barrister provided via Anita to support and represent us in front of school appeal panel. It seemed unlikely from the outset but we successfully won our appeal and our Son is now starting in our preferred first choice secondary school in September!!! Thanks to the fabulous support and assistance of Anita Chopra Consultancy Ltd.

Anita helped us with our daughter's grammar school appeal and was excellent throughout. She was knowledgeable, professional and easy to deal with from start to finish. She took the time to understand our situation, explained the process clearly and helped us prepare the strongest case possible. Communication was always prompt and we felt well supported throughout. Her experience and guidance were invaluable, and we always knew where we stood. We're very grateful for Anita's help and would happily recommend her to any parent looking for support with a school appeal.

Anita Chopra is an exceptional education lawyer and my experience with her completely justifies her stellar reputation. From the outset, I found Anita’s honesty and transparency incredibly refreshing. In handling the grammar school appeal for my son, her 20+ years of expertise were immediately obvious. Anita knew exactly how to frame the arguments to make the maximum impact. The appeal she structured was in fact highlighted during the hearing as one of the strongest presented in recent years. As someone with incredibly high standards, I was thoroughly impressed by the immense value her time and insight brought to the case. I highly recommend Anita’s services to any parent or teacher navigating this complex system.

Anita was highly professional from the outset, providing clear, practical, and invaluable advice throughout the process. She expertly managed every aspect of our case, offering recommendations and guidance at each stage. What was an incredibly emotional and stressful situation became much more manageable thanks to Anita's support and expertise. She successfully secured a revised, robust, and fit-for-purpose EHCP for our son and then went on to achieve placement at the independent SEND school we wanted for him. This was accomplished with the support of an excellent team of professional colleagues, all working together to deliver the best outcome. I would highly recommend Anita to anyone seeking specialist support. She provides honest, straightforward advice and focuses on achieving the best possible solution. We are incredibly grateful for her dedication, guidance, and unwavering support throughout our journey.

Anita led our appeal for our son’s ECHP, which was wholly successful in measuring need, provision and placement. She was excellent in her attention to detail, diligent in meeting deadlines and standards, clear in advising us how to navigate a very complicated set of rules and deadlines, and tenacious in holding the authorities to account. Her advice on what additional support and assessments might be required was superlative and ultimately critical. Highly recommended.
