I want indie - named the school in march - hearing in 48 hours time, LA want mainstream , 2 school said no so LA naming a dire 3rd one with awful Ofsted - think they know they are in trouble so they are going I think to ask the tribunal rather than rule for a specific school are going to ask for them to agree mainstream generally - all the WD says in part 4 is 'transfer to a mainstream secondary in sept'
I have had the LA current preferred school checked out and it cannot meet her needs - have a lengthy report from my EP.
LA have refused to name my school as boarding (no day school locally at all) the school has a good Ofsted but a recent boarding report said adequate so LA saying they wouldn't place a child there even though they have never viewed it and other LA place kids there.
school phoned late last week to say the LA want to visit today -we have nothing to hide so LA going today which is very late given the hearing is just 48 hours away - part of me thinks maybe if they see it they will concede but this is my LA so I know that they are going on a fishing expedition. school have seen the things the LA wrote about them and have responded (all been placed before the tribunal )
cant believe im here again - the LA have no reports, the EP hasn't seen her for a year, the costs of both placements are neck and neck, LA school is dire and im not sending her there ever, 2 outstanding schools have said no with very valid reasons, every single report we have says she needs a specialist school placement but know they are going to fight it all the way - no news yet on a barrister and I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they turned up on the day with one.
lots of positive vibes needed !
