| 00:00 - 00:03 | We have chased the Local Authority after they agreed to carry out the EHC Needs Assessment |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | There have been some delays |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | They have 16 weeks to decide if an EHC Plan is necessary |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | They have 20 weeks to finalise an EHC Plan |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | Once in place, the EHC Plan will provide additional funding for the school |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | Hopefully, it wont be long to wait now |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | When can I expect to receive the final EHC Plan? |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Sir ... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | There is a problem... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | The Local Authority are in the "shit", we don't know.... |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | It could be many months from now |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | I need to speak to the four of you privately, the rest can leave |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | What on earth is going on.... |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | Its a 20 week process! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | Its been 46 weeks, already. 46 weeks! |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | How dare they! Don't they know who I am? |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | [Don't worry] |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | I cannot work, this is stressful |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | My wife is beside herself at home |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | What the hell is going on at that Local Authority! |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | Sir, they dont have enough psychologist's or permanent staff |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | Rubbish, have you seen my council tax bill this month! |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | I know, but its a public body, they waste money and are inefficient |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | This is totally unbelievable |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | What is happening to other families? |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | Don't they know they are in breach of the law? |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | It's a very clear process |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | It's in the Children and Families Act and the Code of Practice |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | How can they justify this illegality? |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | I want to make a complaint, surely that will resolve matters? What a waste of my time and energy |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | I am running out of patience |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | What is the point having legal process if they don't comply? This is not Russia! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | Surely, we can do something about this? |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | What are the options available to me now? |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | I am going to challenge these fools! |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | I need a lawyer |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | ... a lawyer who will kick them hard up the backside |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | We cannot tolerate this illegality any longer |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | They will regret this |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | I will issue legal proceedings in the High Court |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | Let's see them defend their stupid policies in the High Court! |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | Its ok Anna, were going back to Germany for our child's assessments |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | I am so disappointed |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | This process was supposed to be quick |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | To get my child support |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | We need the EHC Plan |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | We need the funding in place without delay |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | But, if they think I am going to take this lying down, their wrong.... |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | Get me SEN4You....... |
