SEN law may have changed in England and is due to be overhauled in Wales, but the basic importance of annual reviews particularly in pending SEN legal cases remain the same. Solicitors within the SEN legal team report that parents are still being wrongly advised that statements or EHCP plans do not need to be regularly changed in line with a child's development or that post 16 cases only allow a maximum of three years support. It is vital that statements or EHCPs are kept up to date and that clear advice is given as to what particular support the child or young person might need irrespective of the stage the child or young person might be at. It might very well mean that the student requires support beyond that which might have been anticipated a year or so ago. This means that support is available and might be required to continue beyond the period that was originally considered necessary. (Ie a three year course might lead to further support being needed thereafter for which the statement LDA (in Wales) or EHCP (in England) might need to envisage.) Specialist education law solicitor Mr Zach Esdaile wrote "it is important to remember that the law in both England and Wales is to encourage the participation of young people in education up to the age of 25"
