    Statement Upheld Special educational needs 29-Apr-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate Mrs X’s complaint about delays in the Education Health and Care Plan process. This is because the Council has agreed to apologise to Mrs X and pay her £100 per month for the delay. We consider this an appropriate remedy and further investigation is therefore unlikely to achieve anything more.

    Statement Upheld Residential care 29-Apr-2025

  • Wokingham Borough Council (24 017 714)

    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 29-Apr-2025

    Summary: We cannot investigate some of Miss X’s complaint about the content of her child, Y’s, Education, Health and Care Plan because she appealed to a Tribunal.
