EHCP stands for Education, Health and Care Plan. It is a legal document in the United Kingdom that outlines the special educational needs (SEN) support that a child or young person requires. EHCPs are typically provided for children and young people with more complex needs that cannot be met through the support available in mainstream schools. The plan is developed through a collaborative process involving the child or young person, their parents or carers, educational professionals, and other relevant parties. EHCPs aim to ensure that children and young people with SEN receive the necessary support to achieve their full potential and make a successful transition into adulthood.
