Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council (24 009 621)
Statement Upheld Special educational needs 10-Feb-2025
Summary: Mr and Mrs X complained their son has not received a suitable education or his special educational provision. Mr and Mrs X also complained about delays in the annual review process and in issuing an amended final Education Health and Care Plan. We found the Council’s failure to identify a suitable school placement or provide suitable alternative provision between September 2023 and July 2024 is fault. As is the delay in completing the annual review process and in issuing a final EHC Plan. This fault meant Z did not receive any education for a whole academic year. He also missed out on the provision in his EHC Plan. The Council has agreed to apologise, make payments to Mr and Mrs X, and take action to improve its service.
