Does anyone have a child with an EHCP, mainstream college?

My daughter has been awarded a EHCP, she is in the first year of college and struggling to get to class. What benefits do you get from the EHCP is there anything I need to know because this is all new to us

thanks

Your daughter's EHCP itself should "describe your child’s needs and the specialist help and provision required to meet those needs."

This NAS article explains more, including about SEN support in further education:

You - and she - might also find this related article helpful, including the section on support:

NAS - Transitions England - Starting college or university
