School is not implementing EHCP provision — what next?
Start by comparing the provision written in Section F with what is actually being delivered and creating a clear written record of any gap.
Processes can change. Check current official guidance and local procedures.
Practical first steps
- Identify the exact Section F provision you believe is missing.
- Record dates and examples factually.
- Ask the school/SENCO how the provision is being delivered.
- If the issue remains unresolved, contact the local authority team responsible for the EHC plan and use the relevant complaints/advice route.
Because enforcement and complaint routes depend on the facts, get specialist advice where needed rather than relying only on a blog article.
