Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The reforms propose that many pupils receive individual support plans agreed between parents and schools, replacing legally enforceable Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs). Campaigners warn that this shift could weaken families’ ability to secure rights and challenge decisions through independent tribunals.
