EOTAS 101: The Parent's Guide to Education Otherwise Than At School

Is your neurodivergent child struggling to access their education setting?

Spend some time with EOTAS expert Heidi Mavir and discover the alternative that she's helped thousands of families across the UK to secure - and learn exactly how to make a case for EOTAS.

If your child has been out of school for months, facing barriers to attendance, or simply not thriving in traditional education, you're not alone. With 7.8% of pupils now educatied otherwise than in school or college (up by over 4000 families this year), EOTAS is becoming an increasingly-vital option for families like yours.

BUT... if you don't understand how EOTAS is secured or the pitfalls around it, you can quickly fall foul of Local Authority shenanigans.

The challenge every EOTAS parent of a child with barriers to attendance faces:

Professionals’ misunderstanding of barriers to attendance
Local Authorities' misinformation about EOTAS eligibility
Complex legal processes that feel overwhelming
Lack of clear guidance on designing an effective package
Feeling isolated in a system that seems to work against you
Children suffering while you navigate bureaucracy

Over 5000 families have had access to our EOTAS 101 webinar. Now it's been updated to include even more help and support for families.

I learnt so much and the most valuable thing I gained was confidence and a bit more fight in me! It is also easier to learn from a live event (or replay) listening to people talk, than reading information online or in books.

Why come along?

Led by Heidi Mavir, a specialist EOTAS advocate who has supported countless families to navigate the EHCP system. Heidi has helped families across England successfully secure fully-funded EOTAS packages for their neurodovergent children and young people.

As a neurodivergent parent to an autistic child, Heidi fought through 18 months of her son being out of school to win at SEN Tribunal. She then supported individual families through the Tribunal system and helped all but one of them secure a fully funded EOTAS package. Now she's sharing everything she learned in this 90 minute webinar.

Heidi Mavir (SHE/THEY) is an AuDHD public speaker, advocate, Sunday Times Best Selling author and parent to an autistic/adhd teenager. She is also a chronic oversharer and a bit of a bad ass.

A trained Mental Health First Aider and CPD Accredited Trauma-Informed Professional, Heidi uses her knowledge, learning and experience to help other parents and carers to become powerful advocates for their neurodivergent kids. She has built an online community of over 10,000 families, supported by parent professionals and SEN advocates who want to improve opportunities for neurodivergent learners.

Heidi has spoken on stages across the UK, and has been featured in The Sunday Times, The Guardian and on BBC National News.

Heidi loves giraffes and will delight you with "giraf-facts" given the opportunity. Her small pleasures are listening to Dolly Parton's music, Yorkshire Tea and her leopard print sofa, which cost more than her car. She wishes all dresses had pockets.

It was really informative in a really easy to understand format which Heidi is amazing at delivering. I've been on this journey for many years and it has finally helped me to see things much clearer. It was also very manageable because of the length and not too overwhelming.

With successful EOTAS requests increasing by 4000+ families in 2024, Local Authorities are beginning to show that they are more open to EOTAS arrangements... AND... they still misinterpret the case law and don't understand how EOTAS should work.

That's why families have to equip themselves with accurate, up to date information. EOTAS 101 will do just that.
