Sarah and Jessica very very good - complete faith in them and would highly recommend

Very professional and knowledgeable, Very happy with the outcome, Beth and jessica made the whole EHCP process easier for me and my son. Would highly recommend education law experts

Education Law Experts were simply wonderful. Responsive, professional, knowledgeable and honest. They put us in touch with excellent experts and ultimately were instrumental in getting our son into our preferred SEN setting. We cannot praise or thank them enough. Thank you!

I highly recommend Education Law Experts. Sarah supported us through a complex and stressful education matter with enormous knowledge, patience and compassion. Her advice was always clear, practical and honest and I always felt genuinely listened to and supported. I am extremely grateful for everything she did for our family.

Beth & her team have gone above and beyond for us and our family. Transparent throughout the whole process, never filled us with false hope but where so professional throughout our time with them. We recieved a positive outcome and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the future. A really positive experience from start to finish!

Team is very knowledgeable and helpful. Recommend their services if you do not want any stress with the need to keep chasing for an update.

We worked with Sarah and Georgia throughout the last year in relation to an EHCP appeal. At every stage we have had options and processes clearly explained. When the Local Authority failed to respond within deadlines or provide information they were required to do, this was always promptly chased up. They have both been very helpful and understanding. We also had a positive result in securing an EOTIS package.

Sarah Woosey is exceptional - very kind, knowledgeable and professional and has helped us a lot

I would highly recommend Beth Holbrook to anyone looking for professional support and expertise to navigate the SEND system. From our first phone call, Beth was helpful and reassuring. She always gave us the time to talk things through thoroughly so we had a good understanding of all the issues and were able to move forward feeling confident and supported. Any time we had a question, she would get back to us with a really considered answer. Beth has such a wealth of experience behind her, but also a really kind manner. She genuinely cares about children and parents and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

Working with Sarah and Emily has been an absolute lifeline for my son during a very stressful period with our child’s SEN schooling. From the very first conversation, they showed a deep understanding of the SEN system and a genuine commitment to securing the right support for my child.

What stood out most was their ability to explain complex processes—EHCPs, assessments, appeals—in a way that made everything feel manageable. They were patient, thorough, and incredibly responsive, always making sure we felt informed and reassured at every stage.

Their advocacy made a real difference. Thanks to their expertise, my child now has the support he needs in the school of my choice, and I finally feel hopeful about he's educational future. I couldn’t have navigated this without them.

I wholeheartedly recommend Educationlawexperts to any parent struggling with SEN provision. Their professionalism, compassion, and determination truly set them apart.

We cannot recommend Sarah highly enough.

We approached Sarah for a second opinion during an extremely stressful and complex period involving our child’s education and legal process. From our very first conversation, she stood out for her clarity, warmth, and deep expertise. She took the time to really listen to us, understand the nuances of our situation, and explain our options in a way that was both reassuring and empowering.

What we appreciated most was not only her legal knowledge, but her human approach. She was calm, thoughtful, and genuinely caring, which made a huge difference at a time when we felt overwhelmed and emotionally stretched. Her advice helped us regain perspective and confidence in our decision-making.

Although due to timing and circumstances we ultimately continued with our existing legal team, Sarah’s support and guidance were invaluable, and we would not hesitate for a moment to work with her in the future. We are extremely grateful for her professionalism, kindness, and integrity.

If you are looking for a lawyer who combines expertise with empathy and clear, honest advice, Sarah is exceptional.

We had hit a brick wall and were going round in circles with the LA when we sought the help of Education Law Experts. Emily's help was invaluable in ensuring that we reached a positive outcome in a timely manner. We can't thank her enough and wouldn't hesitate to use Education Law Experts again if we encounter issues in the future.

Education Law Experts and Beth come very highly recommended. We instructed Education Law Experts to support us with our sons SEN placement for secondary education. Beth expertly helped us navigate the complex legal and tribunal process to deliver a successful result for our son. Thanks to Beth for all the help.

SEND parents know how relentlessly exhausting it is to fight for their children’s education, with local authorities flagrantly - and routinely - flouting the law. We instructed Sarah Woosey to represent us at a SEND tribunal after years of fighting through ourselves, and having decided we needed legal representation. I can’t overstate what a difference it made, not just in winning our case but in lifting the weight from our shoulders. Sarah was an exceptional advocate at tribunal, getting our case across clearly and powerfully to the judge in the online hearing, while also keeping up a stream of reassuring and clear advice by text. We won - of course - and when like Groundhog Day the local authority again tried to withdraw our son’s provision at the next annual review we didn’t even consider managing it again ourselves, but went straight back to Sarah. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

When we first reached out to Sarah we were in an impossible situation with both the school and Local Authority not delivering the provision clearly outlined in our Son's EHCP. Our son was clearly suffering and was not wanting to attend school. Through her expertise and support, we were guided though our options and were able to make sure our son received the provision he is legally entitled to and as a consequence made excellent progress. All of this was achieved in a manner which enabled positive and effective relationships to be maintained with both the school and the Local authority. In addition to the above, we needed to consider specialist school placements for transfer to secondary education. The LA did not agree with our preferred setting. Sarah was invaluable in supporting us through this process and through her guidance and advice we have managed to secure our chosen school for our son.
The SEND system is complicated and there is a significant difference between knowing legal rights/best practice and actually having it implemented. We are in no doubt that if we hadn't used Sarah's expertise then we would have been in a very different situation. She made us feel that we were not on our own and was a fantastic support. Our son is now happy, thriving and excited to start his new school where he will be given every opportunity to achieve his full potential. We cant thank Sarah enough.

I am very happy with Sarah Woosey‘s shared commitment, focus and determination in challenging circumstances to achieve the right result for us. She is totally professional and a real joy to work with. I highly recommend Educational Law Experts.

We used Sarah to appeal our daughter’s secondary school placement and she was great. She is extremely knowledgeable and gave us thorough and comprehensive advice throughout the process. She liaised with the council and dealt with the whole appeals process, which took a lot of stress away for us. I would not hesitate to use Sarah again if needed and would highly recommend her. Thank you Sarah!

Beth represented us for our secondary school phase transfer appeal, when the council named a mainstream school with no additional support for our son (who has an EHCP).

Beth is highly experienced, efficient, extremely knowledgeable and thorough.

She was a great support during an incredibly stressful and frustrating time as we prepared for Tribunal.

In the end we got the result that we wanted, and are deeply relieved that our son will be getting the education he needs to thrive in the correct Secondary setting for him.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Beth to any other parents who find themselves needing to challenge the council over Secondary school placements.

Fantastic support throughout the whole process right up until court hearing. Every step was dealt with care and consideration of the emotional nature of the case. Couldn’t have asked for more.

When we first contacted Beth, we were feeling overwhelmed with the stress and anxiety of trying to manage our son's transition to secondary school and ensure his EHCP reflected his needs and guaranteed him the provision required. We had experienced months of feeling unheard and disregarded by our local authority and were feeling quite hopeless in relation to our son's educational prospects. Beth's calm professionalism, amazing level of knowledge and skill, and her empathy completely turned things around. Her support in meetings, her advice in seeking assessments, and the thoroughness of her work in checking/submitting/reviewing documents have been invaluable in getting us the outcomes our son needs. We are so grateful for the part she's played in our son's educational journey. He finally has a real chance of being happy at school. This means the world to us and we simply wouldn't have achieved this without Beth - she not only supported us in arguing for the minimum we believed our son needed, she encouraged and supported us to go further and push for an educational placement that would deliver far more than this, where he could do more than just manage, but would actually thrive. We would heartily recommend her to any parent or family struggling with the system and needing advice and support in navigating the world of EHCPs and tribunals!
