Call a Public Inquiry into the way that Local Authorities administer/issue EHCPs

Petition Details

For decades local councils have been issuing statements/EHCPs which are neither specified or quantified. Councils know the law which surrounds the way that these legal documents are written & yet a large majority of appeals to tribunal made by parents are because they have failed to do this.

Additional Information

Clear & specific wording is supposed to be used so that there can be no ambiguity about what a disabled child needs. LA's are wasting thousands of hours of court time/public money by breaking these laws & causing parent carers undue distress.

Specificity is not the only repeated and routine breach by any means.

The Government should hold a public inquiry into current practice and consider what actions, including penalties, could be taken on councils who are routinely failing to uphold the law
