Janata Ali

Janata's role at Boyes Turner involves assisting young people and families in a range of Special Education Needs (SEN) related cases. She works closely with parents, young people and various support groups to assist at all stages of the SEN process.  This could mean requesting more support in school, requesting a formal assessment of a child’s SEN and securing Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCP).  This can also involve running Tribunal appeals for parents and securing a change of school placement to somewhere more suitable to the child’s needs.

I have 16 years of experience in the area of Education Law.  I have particular expertise in handling challenging and highly complex Tribunal appeals and am recognised for successfully undertaking wide ranging work in the field of education law.  I assist families with extremely vulnerable children who have profound, complex and multiple disabilities seeking additional specialist educational provision and often residential school placements, at independent special schools.

She has given many talks and provided training sessions on SEN law, Tribunal Appeals, report writing and EHCPs to parents, charities, therapists and school staff. She also writes articles on all of these areas for parents and other experts on our website.

Janata is a member of the Education Law Association.
