Hi
Posted previously about permanent exclusion of child with SEN.
Happily now at new school tomorrow (!) but not happy at Governors Appeal and Independent Review Panel neither of which I thought were conducted properly.
Want to go to First Tier Tribunal to remove the PE and also to challenge the lack of humanity shown.
Has anyone been down the FTT route to challenge an SEN exclusion and could they share some information about the process and best approach?
Any help appreciated

Years have come passed since my post above but someone commented on it and I thought I should clarify something in case anyone is misled by it.
the item is around The Equality Act which was amended to remove the Catch 22 situation around ‘assault’ by a child. This is no longer a bar to a child obtaining protection under the Act under the circumstances I described. Indeed, happily this change took place in the middle of the FTT action and without this defence the school lost the case and were found to have acted unlawfully in the permanent exclusion of my son.

The legal position is that at the time of the incident, you can't apply changes in the law retrospectively.
