So,
I am three days away from my tribunal hearing and can you believe it, the LA still haven't named a school that they feel could meet my son's needs.
As you can imagine, I don't know their "proposed" school cost of placement.
I don't know about the provision their "proposed" school provides.
I don't know the qualifications of staff from the LA "proposed school".
I don't even know the school that the LA are proposing for heaven sakes!
I have filed many request for changes form for the LA to name a school, but they come back with excuse after excuse after excuse!
I even sent them my edited version of the working document 4 weeks ago and I haven't heard back since from them!
This is disgusting behaviour and is highly unfair.
I have no doubt that they are going to request an adjournment or name a school on the day. Whereas me, a 21- year-old-student, I had to literally live on breadcrumbs so that I could save to fund independent reports and for experts to attend as witnesses. I would most probably have to fund these again if an adjournment is accepted by the judge.
I am so thankful for my brilliant representative and the experts (who will be attending to DS hearing) who have been supporting me all the way. But I just feel annoyed that the LA are allowed to do these tactics.
I literally have no case to prepare.
What do I do?
