Refusal To Issue | Drafting your Appeal

Our Refusal to Issue “Grounds of Appeal” service includes the following:

• Writing your tribunal appeal form on your behalf
• Reviewing all of the supporting documents
• Writing your grounds based on the evidence provided.
• Explicitly outline why an Educational Health Care Plan is essential for your child.
• Email correspondence with yourselves to ensure that the Grounds of Appeal is a true reflection of your child’s special educational needs and the reasons why an Education, Health and Care Plan is essential.

• We will then email your Grounds of Appeal and supporting documents in numerical order for you to check.

• You can then lodge your tribunal appeal with the Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal (SENDIST).

Note: SENDIST is the independent appeal panel that considers parental appeals against Education Authority decisions about Special Educational Needs (SEND).
