Focus on Health Advice

Welcome to the Council for Disabled Children’s Health Advice online training.

This training is aimed at adults with a role to play in the Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) system in particular to giving health advice.

The course will help you understand the role of good advice in the plan.

There are three options and each one is for different audiences. Once you have registered, find the option that fits your role best.

Option 1 is for Health colleagues who:

  • Are new to the world of SEND
  • May occasionally give advice for EHCPs

Option 2 is intended for Health colleagues who:

  • Regularly give advice for EHCPs
  • Already have a clear understanding of the purpose of an EHCP, from the child or young person’s perspective
  • Already have a clear understanding of the difference between aspirations, outcomes sought and SMART outcomes
  • Already have a clear understanding of the holistic nature of outcomes

Option 3 is intended for Health colleagues who:

  • Have a strategic role in the EHCP process
  • Have a role in quality assurance
  • Already have a good understanding of aspirations as the golden thread through the plan

Each option will take approximately 45-60 minutes, you can work through at your own pace.

You do not need to complete all of the lessons on the same day. 

We hope you find the course useful! If you need any technical support while completing this course, please contact CDClearning@ncb.org.uk
