Summary
Chapter 12 discusses strategies for how to help children and young people manage school, including if a child has special needs or requires additional support. We discuss how best to communicate with schools and education services around your child’s needs and how to get further advice if needed. We explain what an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) is and consider the pros and cons of specialist schooling.
