Statement Upheld Leisure and culture 24-Apr-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about the Council’s response to a service request.

Bury Metropolitan Borough Council (24 000 867)
Statement Upheld Special educational needs 24-Apr-2025
Summary: Miss X complained that the Council failed to provide education to her son while he was out of school. We have found that the Council was at fault, because it failed to deliver home tuition to Miss X’s son for at least part of 2023. This meant he lost education, and he and Miss X likely suffered distress. The Council has agreed to make symbolic payments to recognise their injustice, and it will take steps to improve its service.

Statement Upheld Special educational needs 24-Apr-2025
Summary: Mrs X complained the Council failed to ensure her child, Y, received the provision in their Education, Health and Care Plan and delayed issuing an amended Plan following an annual review in March 2023. The Council delayed issuing the amended Plan following Y’s annual review, and failed to ensure Y’s school was delivering the provision in the Plan once it was issued. The Council also delayed in responding to Mrs X’s complaint. The Council should apologise, make a payment to Mrs X and review its processes.

London Borough of Haringey (24 002 836)
Statement Upheld Disabled facilities grants 24-Apr-2025
Summary: The Council was at fault for failing to make the disabled adaptations Ms X needs in her home. The Council’s decision making was not in line with the law and guidance and it wrongly insisted Ms X must have all the works to her property it thought she needed. As a result, Ms X has spent over a year without access to a downstairs toilet. To remedy this injustice, the Council has agreed to apologise, progress works to Ms X’s home and make payments to her. The Council will also act to improve its services.
