Brian is an avatar. The plan around him is illustrative; the education he describes in Section A is his own.The plan has run ten years and is proposed for cease. Two sections of his own record still have to reach him, and that happens tomorrow.
Section A — Views, interests and aspirations
ehc-cyp-voicerecorded 2026-10-09
Brian, in his own words, recorded at his review on 2026-09-08 and written down as he said it:
"My name is Brian. I'm twenty. I didn't take the usual school route. I homeschooled myself, sat the GED instead of the regular Thai exams, got into Payap University, and then into Chiang Mai University. I'm reading economics at CMU — how markets work, how value moves, who gets left out when the system is opaque.
What pulled me further in is the layer under the apps: blockchain, and what people call the next generation of the web — the one built so agents can act, settle, and hand work to each other without a person disappearing at every handover. I want to understand that stack the way I understand a balance sheet: incentives, settlement, identity, and who holds the keys. Economics gave me the questions; this is where I think a lot of the answers are moving.
I'm Brian. I'm studying economics at Chiang Mai University. Here is the story of my education, health and care."
Brian convened this review himself and gave this statement first.
Qualifying need
Social, emotional and mental health needs affecting attendance and access to learning — the need that qualified him at ten. At twenty the council's view is that he no longer requires special educational provision to be maintained by a plan (CFA 2014 s.45), having regard to outcomes that have been achieved. The plan is proposed for cease, with the right of appeal to the SEND Tribunal.
Not waiting for the plan
Every other outcome is gated on the final plan. These are not.
A person arranges this. Nothing is ordered automatically.

Decide whether to issue a plan

Final plan issued

Each stage names what the council must do and by when. Four of the eight carry a statutory week; the rest are the life of the plan after it is written.
Not part of the statutory plan. Kept with it because a record that holds only what professionals wrote
down is missing most of what happened.

He used to play football. Before his leg, that is what he did — barefoot on the sand, a ball at his feet, every day it was not raining. Afterwards he was at home in bed a lot, and he played games instead.
One day I found a run of Apple payments on my card. It was connected to his iPad. Robux: four lots of 800, ฿349 each time. I asked him what he had spent them on. One of them was a hat. So I asked him what the hat does — does it give you some kind of magical powers?
He said: “No. Just a hat.”
I was not angry. Apple gave the money back, and he still got to keep what he had bought. And I understood it later than I should have. On that platform the avatar is how you are seen, and being seen is how you have friends. He made friends there he kept for life.

I was homeschooling him for a while. Everything was very free and experimental. He told me what he was interested in and I showed him where to find learning activities he could undertake. He chose the direction he took by himself. There were no rules except that he had to read books and watch videos, and every day he had to write down what he learned.
He read at the beach, mostly. Learning and thinking about the world.
One day this is what he wrote down. It is in the locker now, in his handwriting: how to calm your mind, how to train it, how to have an extraordinary one. How to make a dent in the universe. The true meaning of god. How to break free of a rule that holds you back. He was maybe eleven.

The words “No. Just a hat.” are his, exactly as he said them; nothing else here is a quotation.
“No. Just a hat.”
From the inside out
Everyone around me
3 of the ten readings take in every section of this plan as the professional record. Brian reads 7 of 9; 2 sections are held back from him.
Each row is one way of reading this plan and each square is one section —
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I. The squares say whether that reading gets the
professional record, a version written for that reader, or nothing at all.
They never show what is in a section, including the ones held back
from Brian.

The sections in statutory order, A first — the child's own words open the plan.
Each row names the role accountable for it and how many pieces of evidence are
filed against it.
3 of 9 sections have no evidence
recorded behind them. Their rings are empty because nothing has been filed, not
because this page could not find it.
