Every CYP is a story. Every plan is a promise.
The Education, Health and Care platform brings together nine specialist agents — one pod, one plan, one clock — to carry every child and young person through the statutory process faster, with every voice heard and every decision recorded.
Every child, by where they are
Seven cohorts. The statutory process is the same for all of them; what changes is what gets missed. Each page names the thing that gets missed.
Early Years (0–5)
They're not too young to need help. They're too young to wait.
Primary (5–11)
The gap shouldn't grow while they wait for a plan.
Secondary (11–16)
Exams, transitions, and a voice that matters.
Post-16 (16–19)
Adulthood doesn't start at 18. It starts now.
Complex Medical
Their health need shouldn't block their education.
Looked-After & Edge-of-Care
One plan. One record. One person who knows the whole story.
Complex Communication & Non-Verbal
They have a voice. Let's learn how to hear it.
The journey — from request to review
The setting
A classroom. A family. A need that someone notices. The statutory clock begins.
The pod
Nine agents gather — chairman, keyworker, parents, doctor, SENCo, therapist, social worker, LA, and the CYP's own voice.
The request
A parent writes. A school refers. A health visitor flags. The EHC needs assessment starts.
The outcomes
Not services — outcomes. What the CYP wants to achieve. Measurable. Specific. Their words.
The plan
Sections A through I. Every provision specified and quantified. Every section owned by one member of the pod.
The review
The pod meets. The CYP opens the meeting. Every decision recorded with a reason and a date.
The record
What worked. What didn't. What we discovered. Carried forward so the next child doesn't start from scratch.
The pod — nine agents, one plan
Chairman
Convenes meetings, keeps the person-centred agenda, minutes every decision
Local Authority
Statutory duties, the clock, the draft plan, decisions with reasons
Keyworker
One continuous relationship — holds the whole child, escalates early
CYP Voice
The child's wishes and feelings — spoken first, not summarised last
Parents
Family evidence, concerns and rights — equal partners, not visitors
Doctor
Medical evidence and health provision — Section C and G, quantified
SENCo
Graduated response, provision mapping, progress data — honest baselines
Therapist
SLT/OT assessment — specified, quantified, section named
Social Worker
Safeguarding, care context — present where it belongs, explicit where it doesn't
The statutory clock — tracked, never hidden
week decision
Whether to assess
week advice
Gather evidence
week draft
Issue the plan
week final
Finalise and deliver
Every window tracked. Every deadline alerted. The system warns — not the child.
Every CYP deserves a plan that moves at the pace they need
Whether you're a parent starting the journey, a professional contributing evidence, or a young person who wants to be heard — the EHC platform is here.
