I have said farewell to IPSEA. Best of luck to all of you in your continued battles. Keep up your amazing work.
DfE plan to introduce a 2yr trial in 2018, expanding FTT SEND powers to make non-binding recommendations on H&SC of EHCPs - thoughts?
Published today by DfE gov.uk/government/pub…
Here's our response to the DfE Guide for Local Authorities on supporting 19 to 25 year olds with SEND bit.ly/2lZSDcl #SEN

Exciting discussions today over the strategic direction of IPSEA. #IPSEAcharity
@btbusinesscare Liam Eliot, BT Belfast, instructed in September, is'working towards getting the details of managing the details of your complaining. WHAT?
@btbusinesscare We booked to have BT voice cloud installed on 19 December. Still no phone lines. We are told the computer says no.
@BTBusiness @IPSEAcharity we help parents with legal issues. Without phones we cant offer support. BT have failed to meet the deadlines.
@BTBusiness IPSEA has been left without telephones for more than one month. Managers on courses so complaints not accepted. Really?
@newsworthy_gem we're highlighting the law. That's not in dispute. Legal duties are clear!
@IPSEAchiefexec interesting! Does Dfe advocate same as Ipsea????
1st day of joint IPSEA & DfE training in Stevenage. Decision making and the law for LAs. What would you say?
@cathmackinlay Always happy to support any parents who need assistance navigating there way through these issues #IPSEAcharity
Want to know what the law says on the format and content of EHCPs? Check out our resource here: goo.gl/Rk1Hng
@cathmackinlay Everything you need to know is in this case. A briefing is being finalised for IPSEA vols, …iveappeals.decisions.tribunals.gov.uk//Aspx/view.asp…
We've helped more than 5,000 families in 2016 so are taking a break - we'll be back on 3rd Jan. Merry Christmas & thanks for your support
