Document Review & Strategy Session

Clarity. Direction. Understanding.

This service is designed for families who would like professional review and guidance regarding their child’s SEND documentation, provision, or EHCP process.

I will carefully review the documents provided in advance, identifying:

• Strengths within the current evidence
• Possible gaps in provision or wording
• Areas requiring clarification or strengthening
• Concerns regarding implementation or suitability of provision
• Possible next steps and considerations moving forward

We will then meet for a private consultation via Teams to discuss the findings and wider context surrounding the case.

This session is intended to help families better understand their position, concerns, and possible options before deciding how they wish to proceed.

What’s Included

✓ Review of documents provided in advance
✓ 1–1 consultation (approximately 60–90 minutes)
✓ General strategic guidance based on the information shared
✓ Written summary report with observations and recommendations

Important

This service provides guidance and professional opinion based on the information available at the time of review.

It does not include:

• Ongoing advocacy support
• Continued case management
• Detailed strategic planning following the session
• Ongoing communication support after the consultation

From £95–£160

(depending on complexity and volume of documentation)

Case Consultation Sessions

Flexible guidance for families needing support at specific stages.

These sessions are suitable for families who may not require ongoing advocacy support but would benefit from professional guidance regarding a particular issue, concern, communication, or next step.

Examples may include:

• Discussing recent school or Local Authority communication
• Understanding possible next steps
• Reviewing concerns regarding provision or placement
• Discussing escalation options
• Guidance regarding EHCP processes, amendments, annual reviews, or provision concerns

Prior to the session, families will complete a short pre-meeting form so key concerns and priorities can be understood in advance.

Guidance is provided based on the information shared within the session and pre-meeting information provided.

What the Pre-Meeting Form May Include

• Current stage of the SEND/EHCP process
• Main concerns at present
• Specific questions or areas they would like guidance on
• Recent developments or communication received
• A short overview of the situation

The purpose of the form is to allow focused and productive use of the consultation time.

Important

These sessions are guidance-based consultations only.

They do not include:

• Full document review
• Ongoing advocacy
• Ongoing case management
• Detailed strategic planning outside the appointment
• Representation or communication on behalf of parents

Guidance and recommendations are based solely on the information shared during the session and within the pre-meeting form.

From £75–£120 per session

Ongoing Advocacy Support

For families requiring continued support, oversight, and advocacy throughout the SEND process.

Some situations require more than one-off guidance. Where concerns are ongoing, communication becomes difficult, or cases become increasingly complex, ongoing advocacy support can provide structure, consistency, and professional oversight throughout the process.

Support is tailored depending on the level of involvement required.

Advocacy Support – Guidance Package

For families managing communication themselves but wanting professional oversight and guidance.

✓ Strategic advice regarding next steps, escalation routes, and wider case direction

From £200 per month

Advocacy Support – Full Advocacy Package

For families requiring ongoing strategic support, higher-level advocacy involvement, and professional oversight throughout the process.

This package is designed for more complex situations where families require consistent support managing communication, strategy, escalation concerns, provision disputes, placement concerns, or wider SEND difficulties.

Communication & Advocacy Options

This may include:

or
✓ Direct advocacy involvement, where communication with professionals may be managed by me on your behalf where appropriate and agreed in advance

Every family requires a different level of involvement, therefore advocacy arrangements are always discussed individually.

Important

This package does not include SEND Tribunal representation unless specifically agreed separately.

Where tribunal support is required, this will be discussed and costed separately depending on complexity and level of involvement needed.

From £400 per month

(depending on complexity, level of involvement, and required support)

Fees discussed individually depending on complexity and stage reached.
