My daughter is in the process of going through an education health care needs assessment but her reports for health including OT are 5 years old. She has been re referred for therapies but the new reports will not be completed in time to be considered for the assessment.
Awaiting reports can cause a delay so to avoid this you would complete your EHCP and then when the reports come you then submit those to the local authority and you would ask them to make amendments to the EHCP to take into consideration those reports.
