Coventry City Council (25 006 899)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Special educational needs 06-Nov-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Mrs X’s complaint about the delays issuing her daughter G’s Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan because the Council has offered a suitable remedy. There is nothing we could add to the Council’s response to Mrs X’s complaint about her dealings with the Council once the Council issued the draft Plan. The school the Council named in the Plan now says it cannot meet G’s needs. The Council is responsible for ensuring G receives the special educational provision in her plan. If Mrs X is unhappy with its efforts to do so, she should complain to the Council in the first instance.

West Sussex County Council (24 002 365)
Statement Upheld Assessment and care plan 06-Nov-2025
Summary: The Council was at fault for failing to properly consider Mrs X’s need for respite as a carer and for not providing her with regular respite it accepted she needs. The Council will apologise and make a symbolic payment to Mrs X to recognise the avoidable distress caused by its fault. It will also take steps to prevent recurrence of the same fault.

Norfolk County Council (24 014 844)
Statement Upheld Special educational needs 06-Nov-2025
Summary: Ms X complained the Council failed to secure special educational provision in Section F of her child’s Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan by way of providing sufficient funding so the school could recruit support staff. This led to a serious incident where her child’s safety was put at risk. I find the Council did fail to ensure Ms X’s child, and other children within the school, received all the special educational provision to which they were legally entitled. I also find the Council failed to consider its equality duties when disabled pupils had reduced timetables because of funding pressures. The Council has agreed to apologise to Ms X, make a symbolic payment for lost education and carry out service improvements. The complaint is upheld.
