As a private SEND Consultant, I provide independent and impartial advice, guidance and support to families and children with a range of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
I help families navigate through the Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) process, understand reports, fill in paperwork, and provide support during SEND-related meetings, including annual reviews, mediation, and support to draft paperwork for appeals.
I can assist parents with requests for EHCP assessments and promote positive outcomes in situations where there has been disagreement.
Additionally, I offer SENCO services to education providers, including extensive knowledge of education for children in care and the Virtual School.

"It is my pleasure to strongly recommend Karishma.
I’m a single Mum, my son is autistic and Karishma is the one individual who I have worked with who uniquely stands out for me and my son.
During our time working together, Karishma has done amazing work to help us with the EHCP parental request. Karishma’s understanding of the situation and her help to sort everything together was amazing.
I would highly recommend Karishma to those who are struggling with applying as a parent for ECHP and if there is anything with school you need to sort out, she is the best who can help.”
"I started working with Karishma while drafting my son's EHCP. I am so glad I asked her for help as it is crucial to have well-written sections B and F that accurately represent your child’s needs, and how they can be supported moving forward. This is the foundation for securing a suitable setting for your child.
My child has now secured a place at the school of our preference, thanks to a well-written EHCP.
I highly recommend Karishma if your child has SEND, she is very professional, empathetic and friendly.”
"Karishma supported me in applying for a parental request for an EHCP assessment. This went through the first time.
She guided me through liaison with the local authority.
She pointed out parts of the draft EHCP that needed to be changed and with her help, we managed to do this and get the right support for my child."
