Researcher proposes Individual Inclusion Plans to replace EHCPs
15 September 2026
A thought-piece on Special Needs Jungle argues that Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) secure provision but not inclusion in mainstream schools. Dr Sharon Smith proposes replacing them with Individual Inclusion Plans that keep children's entitlements while adding a statutory duty on schools to change environments and culture. The article states it is a personal view, not an SNJ position.
