Description

North Somerset Council actively piloted the co-development of an innovative solution using tools provided by Agilisys Ltd. The pilot led to the development of an AI-assisted EHCP assessment process. After thorough testing of the EHCP platform and practitioner-led innovation, the EHCP tool has developed into a complex, standalone tool within the platform, saving circa two hours per assessment. North Somerset Council intend on continuing to use and build upon it's steps towards using AI to reduce administrative activity by using the available tools to automate further templates.
