Hello,
My understanding is that statements should be quantified and qualified in provision. My questions are:
- Can it be concluded by school prospectus and HT assurance that programmes for a child will incorporate sufficient therapeutic input to meet the childs special educational needs withough the requirement for specification?
- If the school says that they cannot provide some of the detailed quantified and qualified provision in an independent report, then the tribunal judge then says that without further evidences the tribunal concluded that further specification in relation to some of the provision was not necessary. Effectively can a tribunal judge downgrade the provision required to suit the school?
- Can a tribunal judge presented with independent reports choose to include one report worded in his own way and another report totally ignore?
- Anyone can share how they prove that travelling over 1 hour can be excessive as there seems to be varying guidelines on this? When I say over one hour, I am saying from one city to another city.
Wonder if others can share on or offline how they overcome the above without resorting to tribunal? I have already highlight that my LA paid an independent school over 1 years fees when my son never attended there as he was on HE register and monitored for Home Education. Knowing their 'mistake' the LA have taken him off the HE register and have re-started paying this independent school again but are now forcing attendance.
Replies appreciated.
Regards,
Bridget
