Free, independent resources for families in England  ·  Not legal advice  ·  Always consult your local SENDIASS  · 
Free parent tool · attendance and suitable education

You do not have to understand every legal route before you ask for a review.

The EBSA Attendance Action Map helps you organise what your child is experiencing, what support has been tried and the next written question for school or the local authority.

What this free resource helps you do

Prepare a proportionate written request before deciding what further advice you need.

The EBSA Attendance Action Map is a printable online action map. Use it at your own pace. There is no need to make a big decision today.

  • Attendance dates and the barriers you can see
  • The adjustments and support already attempted
  • The decision-maker, evidence and next review point to ask for
Keep this proportionate. Section 19 can be relevant in some England cases, but duties and suitable provision depend on the facts. This is not individual legal, clinical or advocacy advice.
When you are ready for more structure

The free resource stands on its own.

If you later want a more structured route through the next stage, the Hub has optional parent learning and additional free tools. There is no pressure to decide that now.
