Do not advise the parent of this outcome unless advised that the EHC coordinator has informed the parent/carer of this outcome.Slide36

Annual Review

The three suggested outcomes of the annual review are:

End Plan – this will create a episode closure task for the EHCP team / the EHC coordinator to close the case.Slide44
