Edvocation® Services has partnered with Associate Practitioners in Education and Inclusion to secure the most appropriate pathways and outcomes for a child or young person who has or may have SEND and for whom provision which is additional to or different from that available to their peers.

Our practitioners can manage, guide or advise parent/carers/and professionals - such as SENCo/ALNCo's - on SEND processes, as well as review and compile documentation associated with the Children and Families Act (2014), SEND Code of Practice (DfE, 2015) and clinical practice referrals.

Individual Case Consultation offers individualised working. For example through:

• full management of your case
• providing regular, scheduled checks and guidance throughout the timeframe of our work with you
• advice sessions scheduled as 'one-off', and/or 'when needed'
