Hi everyone.
My son has an ehcp and did not get his first choice school named in his plan. We are appealing but the first choice school have said they can't meet his needs, which I disagree with. They based their decision on the impact on other students and appropriate use of resources. My son has never been disruptive in class, his main issue is retaliation when he is bullied in the playground. He is very quiet in class. Another reason is aptitude because he is quite below the required levels academically. They have also said admitting him would be inappropriate use of resources.
I was recently advised to ask the prefered school to reconsider their decision about meeting his needs. Is this something worthwhile doing? If so, how would you go about it?
Thank you in advance
