Country-specific guidance

Do not assume an EHCP, US IEP or another country's process applies here. Use the local education framework and current official guidance.

What it can cover

Official guidance describes possible educational adjustments, adapted equipment, medico-social support or human assistance.

People involved

The family, school team and relevant education and health professionals can be involved in implementing the pathway.

Prepare evidence

Keep reports, school observations, examples of barriers and records of adjustments already tried so discussions stay focused on functional educational needs.
