Maintaining and reviewing Education Health and Care Plans (EHCPs)
Where an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) is maintained for a child or young person the local authority (LA):
- must secure the special educational provision specified in the plan
- should reach agreement with health and social care partners about the health and social care provision specified in the plan and how it will be made
EHCPs will be used to actively monitor children and young people's progress towards their outcomes and longer-term aspirations.
They must be reviewed by the LA a minimum of every 12 months through an Annual Review.
