Legal grounding

Every argument cites the law

Your pack references specific statutory provisions and Code of Practice paragraphs — not generic advice.

Children and Families Act 2014, s.36(8)

"The LA must conduct an EHC needs assessment if it considers that the child may have special educational needs, and it may be necessary for special educational provision to be made for the child in accordance with an EHC plan."

Counters Local Authorities who refuse assessment by claiming needs are 'not severe enough'. The threshold is 'may' — a deliberately low bar.

SEND Code of Practice 2015, para 9.14

"The purpose of an EHC plan is to make special educational provision to meet the SEN of the child, to secure the best possible outcomes across education, health and social care."

Anchors your argument that provision must be outcome-focused, not limited by available resources.

SEND Code of Practice 2015, para 9.56

"An EHC plan must specify the outcomes sought for the child or young person and the special educational provision required to meet their needs."

Challenges vague provision wording — the plan must be specific, quantified, and outcome-driven.

SEND Code of Practice 2015, para 9.69

"Where a local authority refuses to conduct an EHC needs assessment, the parent has a right of appeal to the First-tier Tribunal (Special Educational Needs and Disability)."

Asserts the parent's statutory right of appeal — essential when a Local Authority ignores or delays requests.

Citations drawn from primary legislation and statutory guidance — referenced in context, not applied as legal advice.

Local Authority Reason Matcher

Select the Local Authority reason. We retrieve the relevant knowledge and build the response structure.

Parents often get stuck because the Local Authority gives a reason and they don't know where to start. EHCP Clarity holds a bank of common Local Authority and school response patterns. When you select the reason that matches your situation, we retrieve the relevant sections of that knowledge and structure your pack around them.

What the school or Local Authority says:

Selected reason:

"Needs can be met from existing resources"

Knowledge sections retrieved for this reason:

SEN Support history and outcomesSchool provision analysisEvidence of unmet need

What this typically means for your child's case:

The school or Local Authority is saying current provision is adequate — without necessarily reviewing whether it has actually worked for your child.

What to check:

  • Whether your child has made measurable progress against SEN Support targets
  • Whether current provision is clearly specified and can be monitored
  • Whether any professional has suggested a statutory assessment may be relevant

Evidence that may be relevant:

  • Reports showing needs remain present despite SEN Support being in place
  • School data and SEN Support reviews showing limited progress
  • Professional assessments noting that current support may not be sufficient

Questions to ask the school or Local Authority:

  • ?What specific provision is in place, and has it made a difference for my child?
  • ?Has all professional advice been considered in this decision?
  • ?What outcomes has SEN Support achieved against the agreed targets?

From the matched knowledge sections, your pack includes:

Evidence checklist for your child's situation
Questions for the school and Local Authority
Parent concern structure
Next-step action plan

Parent Representation Letter

Section 1 of 8
Draft — awaiting your review

Despite two and a half years of SEN Support, the difficulties identified in the EP report have not reduced and the gap between attainment and age-related expectations continues to widen.

Under s.36(8) of the Children and Families Act 2014, the threshold for an EHC needs assessment is whether it 'may be necessary' for special educational provision to be made — a deliberately low bar that the evidence presented here satisfies.

Statutory references included for your information only — not legal advice

Local Authority Response Pattern

Pattern matched to your situation

Local Authority reason given

"Your child is making progress at school"

Prepared response

Progress during SEN Support does not establish that an EHCP is unnecessary. The relevant question is whether needs can be met without an EHC plan — not whether some progress is being made.

About this tool

What EHCP Clarity does

EHCP Clarity is an AI-assisted case preparation workspace for UK parents navigating the SEND system in England. Parents type guided input answers and paste short, targeted extracts from their own reports — no document uploads. Identifying details are tokenised before any AI processing, and the system then drafts a structured preparation pack for the parent to review, edit, and export.

It is not a replacement for a solicitor. It provides case preparation support — building the structure, mapping evidence, identifying weak EHCP wording, and drafting section wording for parent review. The Local Authority Reason Matcher identifies the common Local Authority or school response pattern and retrieves the relevant sections of EHCP knowledge to shape the pack around the issue the parent is actually facing.
