Thank you, Sean. Can I ask a further question from the same order? The LA refused to give me a copy of the consultation response from the named school. On the SEND7 I asked the tribunal to direct the LA to submit. This was also refused. "I do not see why a consultation response should exist because X School is Xs current placement". So my question is: Are there circumstances when a consultation does not need to take place if the child was already a pupil before the EHCP? I cannot find any information about such circumstances.

I have never heard of exams being sat at home. My son has a separate quiet room - would that work?
Can a disabled child or young person sit their examinations at home?

Is precision teaching the same as special educational provision?
My son has been diagnosed with a specific learning difficulty—dyslexia—and I have been informed that precision teaching constitutes the special educational provision required to meet his associated special educational needs. Should I accept this at face value?

When receiving an amended EHCP from the local authority (LA), must a child or young person receive a letter confirming their right to appeal to the First-tier Tribunal (FtT)?
When receiving an amended EHCP, is it acceptable for a local authority to send an accompanying letter with the newly issued plan, emphasising their willingness to work together to resolve any disputes but no other information? While this may be welcomed, is this what the legal framework requires?
