  • Derbyshire County Council (18 012 867)

    Statement Upheld School transport 29-Mar-2019

    Summary: Mr B complains that the Council has not dealt with his school transport appeal properly. The Council did not follow its policy or the Statutory Guidance and did not give a detailed written explanation of the considerations made by the appeals panel. This has left Mr B with uncertainty that his appeal was properly considered. The Council should reconsider the stage 2 appeal, provide a detailed written explanation and review its school transport policy.

  • Medway Council (17 015 628)

    Report Upheld School transport 13-Mar-2019

    Summary: Mrs B complained to us in 2016 about the Council’s decision to refuse her younger daughter, C, home to school transport to the secondary school that she attends (reference: 16 008 920). We found that the Council’s policy did not comply with the Home to school travel and transport guidance, and it should have offered C home to school transport. The Council agreed to provide home to school transport for C to her present school from the date of our decision; reimburse Mrs B for the actual home to school transport costs she incurred for C from September 2016 (up to a maximum of £700); and maintain its current Home to School Transport Policy for the present but review it within three months in light of our guidance. Mrs B complains that the Council has failed to carry out the agreed actions.
