Statement Upheld Special educational needs 07-Feb-2025

We found avoidable delay by the Council in its handling of Miss X’s case which caused her avoidable distress and frustration. To put matters rights, the Council agreed to make a symbolic payment of £700 to Miss X. We did not find the Council’s delay meant Miss X’s child lost the opportunity to gain a place at her preferred specialist school.
