This work covers the rights of children and young people who need additional help with education because of learning difficulties, disabilities or other barriers, and the duties on schools and councils to provide support through EHC plans and SEN provision. A solicitor in this area drafts and challenges provision decisions, helps obtain or appeal support, and guides families through education tribunals if needed. It is shaped by the SEND reforms and the Code of Practice for Special Educational Needs.

Where a solicitor protects your position

A solicitor helps prepare and present evidence for Education, Health and Care plans and top-up support, challenges school assessments, and represents families at SEND Tribunals if an EHC plan or statement is disputed. They gather medical, psychological or educational assessments, draft statements of needs, negotiate with authorities, and advise on deadlines, rights of appeal, and safeguarding considerations where relevant.
