Final EHC plan and offer of a school place

By 15 February 2026, you will receive a letter outlining your child's final Education Health, and Care (EHC) plan. This is done on a case by case basis, so some parents may receive their letter earlier than 15 February.

In Section I of the plan, it will specify your child’s school or type of school for the next key stage:

  • Reception
  • Year 3
  • Year 7

Your EHC plan Coordination Officer will offer a 'Way Forward' meeting. This is available if you wish to discuss the school that has been named, the content of the final EHC plan, or if a school has not yet been identified.

Although, we do not automatically share consultation responses with parents, you can find out how we consulted schools by contacting us.
