Once the SEND35 has been sent and received by the tribunal they will register the appeal in around 20 working days.

The parent/carer or young person will then receive a pack of information (usually an email) detailing:

• Date of hearing

• Case Directions (timetable of what will happen when)

• Right to request your appeal be actively case managed

• Case review form

• Request for Changes Form (SEND 7)

It is really important that the parent/carer or young person make a note of the dates in the case directions, these dates will be important and will tell the parent, carer or young person when certain things have to be done by.
