  • What you have been told about EHCPs is wrong
    Jun 12 2024

    An EHCP is only for the most severely disabled children. Your child is managing academically and will never get one. Have you ever been told this? Well it’s absolute BS and I am going to explain why.


    Welcome to The SEND Parenting Survival Guide podcast, guiding you through the SEND parenting maze. My name is Esther Freeman, and I teach people the techniques and principals that helped my daughter go from five or six violent meltdowns a day to zero. This weekly podcast will help you create a calmer family life too – so subscribe where ever you get your podcast to make sure you don’t miss an episode.

My name is Esther Freeman, and I teach people the techniques and principals that helped my daughter go from five or six violent meltdowns a day to zero.
