A resource to help practitioners to write good quality Education Health and Care (EHC) plans that meet both the letter and the spirit of the Children and Families Act 2014. It aims to help those contributing to EHC needs assessments and those writing EHC plans. Section A includes excerpts from real EHC plans and tips for completing an EHC plan. Section B provides EHC plans for two fictional children, which draw on real examples. Each section covers different areas of EHC plans, including the aspirations of the child; the child or young persons’ special educational needs; health needs; social care needs; the outcomes sought for the child or the young person; and special educational, health and social care provision. The resource aims to encourage discussion about the key features of high quality EHC plans. (Edited publisher abstract)
