EHCP
Also called Education, Health and Care Plan, EHC Plan, Statement
A legal document setting out a child's needs and the provision the council must secure. The only enforceable form of school support.
Education A to Z
Education and Curriculum Terms: A Guide for Students and Teachers
Please note: This page explains a word or a process in education. It is general information about the system, the law and the guidance in England — not advice about your child, your school or your exam. If a decision is going against you, get advice from one of the free services we link to before you agree to anything or miss a deadline. If you are revising, check your own exam board's specification: boards word things differently and yours is the one that marks you.
Revising? We write GCSE revision songs — a playlist covering most subjects and the English set texts. Listen to the revision playlist.

E
EHCP annual review timescales
The dates a council must meet after a review. Missing them is the commonest failure.
Elective home education
Also called EHE, Home schooling, Home education
A parent choosing to educate their child outside school. Legal, and it transfers the duty and the cost to you.
Elective home education and SEND
Home educating a child with an EHCP. Legal, and the funding does not follow.
Electricity
Current, voltage, resistance, and the two kinds of circuit.
Electrolysis
Splitting compounds with electricity. What goes where, and why.
Emotive language
Word choices that trigger feeling. Common, and easy to write about badly.
Energy
Stores and transfers, conservation and efficiency. The vocabulary changed and the exams follow the new one.
Energy changes in reactions
Exothermic and endothermic, and the energy needed to start.
Energy systems and the body
How the body fuels exercise, and what happens to it during and after.
