SEN appeals: writing the ‘working document’ (SEND23)

A working document is the final statement written by the local authority and the parents or young person before they go to a special educational needs (SEN) appeal hearing.

It shows:

• changes to the wording of an SEN statement or education, health and care plan that each side wants or can agree
• any issues that the tribunal must decide at the hearing
