How we help Get support Education, Health and Care plans Appealing to the SEND Tribunal Can you appeal to the SEND Tribunal where the only problem is in relation to health and/or social care? No. There has to be an educational component to the appeal for it to be considered under the SEND Tribunal National Trial. If your concerns about the child or young person’s EHC plan are around health and/or social care rather than mediation, you still have the option of mediation.
