Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council (23 009 390)
Statement Upheld Special educational needs 18-Dec-2024
Summary: Miss X complained the Council failed to provide her child with an education, delayed issuing and reviewing an education, health and care plan, and handled her complaint poorly. Miss X said this meant her child’s needs were not met, they lost out on education, and it caused distress, frustration, and upset. We find the Council at fault, and this caused injustice. The Council has agreed to apologise, make a payment to Miss X, make an additional monthly payment for each month of delay reviewing the plan, and improve its service.

Summary: There was fault by the Council because it took too long to respond to Ms X’s request for an Education, Health and Care needs assessment for her daughter Y. There is continuing delay in obtaining advice from an Educational Psychologist and making a decision on whether or not to issue an Education, Health and Care Plan. The Council will apologise and make symbolic payments to reflect the avoidable frustration and uncertainty.

Statement Upheld Adoption 18-Dec-2024
Summary: Mrs B complained about the extent of support she had received over recent years from the Council, in meeting the needs of her adopted child. We upheld the complaint, finding the Council failed to provide some services, despite saying it would in response to a complaint and following assessments. This resulted in a loss of service and distress to Mrs B. The Council accepted these findings and agreed action to remedy this injustice, set out at the end of this statement.

Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council (24 009 463)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Allocations 18-Dec-2024
Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s handling of Ms X’s reports of harassment and anti-social behaviour by her neighbours and the impact warning letters sent to her about her own behaviour had on her housing banding priority. This is because past events fall outside our jurisdiction due to the passage of time and there is insufficient evidence to suggest fault in the Council’s handling of her more recent request for a management transfer move or that her case be treated as an exception to the lettings policy.
