When a parent or carer has chosen to write a report to contribute to the Annual Review of their child or young person’s EHCP, it is always a good idea to include your comments on:

• Your child or young person’s progress over the last year
• What you are happy about and also any concerns
• What you feel your child or young person’s needs will be in school or college for the coming year
• What you think you and the school or college can do to help meet those needs
• Your child or young person’s aspiration and views about school
• You may also like to include some information about how you feel your child or young person is coping both at school or college and at home

You may find it useful to look at or use the official Annual review pro forma templates as a guide to help you cover all special needs/areas that will have to be considered in the meeting.
