People who can help you prepare for adult life

Education, health and care plan coordinators (EHCP coordinators) are responsible for case management for children and young people who have an education, health and care (EHC) plan, or are having a statutory needs assessment for an EHC plan.

The EHCP coordinator works with parents/carers and young people. They make sure that children, young people and their families are fully involved in the assessment process, and that the child or young person is fully involved in any decisions made about him or her.

EHCP coordinators:

• Monitor progress, provision and placement through quality assurance and the annual review process
• Make sure these are carried out efficiently and happen when they should
• Make sure they follow the published Norfolk process and the SEND Code of Practice 2014

EHCP coordinators are part of children's services in Norfolk County Council. If you or your child has a EHC plan or is having a statutory needs assessment, this person will usually be the named officer in any letters.
