Lincolnshire asks about a child or young person’s other supporting professionals when an education, health and care needs assessment is considered. In practice, the school or setting discusses the child’s needs with the family and anyone else involved before a request is made.
| What Lincolnshire asks about | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Other supporting professionals | To help build a full picture of the child or young person’s needs |
| Parent/young person/school or college involvement | To make sure the request comes from the right person and with the right knowledge |
You do not need a medical diagnosis to apply. If you want to start a request, Lincolnshire says to use the request needs assessment option on the EHC Hub.
