Moving in or out of Wiltshire with an EHCP

Movers into Wiltshire

For parents we are about to welcome into our county it is always important you let your local authority know you are leaving them. They should then get in touch with the relevant educational team to hand over any required information.

For local authority staff looking to contact with documentation for SEND movers in please use the following:

For children and YP already holding EHCPs contact EHCPNorthteam@wiltshire.gov.uk (opens new window).

For those currently under assessment contact EHCPNorthteam@wiltshire.gov.uk (opens new window).

Information to share when you contact the SEND team:

• which Local Authority you are moving from
• child and parent/carer details
• current address (address you were/are at before you move to Wiltshire)
• new address (address of where you will be living in Wiltshire)
• proposed move date

This will help the team request the right documents from your original Local Authority and begin the transfer process.

Moving out of Wiltshire

If you are moving away from the county, please let us know about any children in your care needing to transfer educational establishment.

You can email the team in charge of outgoing handovers by emailing statutorysen.service@wiltshire.gov.uk (opens new window).
