When we find fault, we can recommend improvements to systems and processes where they haven’t worked properly, so that others do not suffer from these same problems in future. Common examples are policy changes; procedural reviews; and staff training. Service improvements from decisions are published for 5 years and those from reports are published for 10 years.

    Summary

    Mrs H complained the Council failed to ensure her son (X) received all the provision set out in his Education, Health, and Care plan since 2021. We found the Council was responsible for a service failure which caused a short delay in putting occupational therapy in place in 2024, and it failed to issue a decision notice following an annual review. It should apologise to Mrs H and make a symbolic payment to acknowledge the short delay X experienced to receive occupational therapy. There was no other fault, and parts of Mrs H’s complaint was late.

    The Council will remind its special educational needs and disability staff to ensure decisions on whether to cease, maintain, or amend existing Education, Health, and Care plans are at all times issued within statutory timescales to parents. Including ensuring this is clearly recorded on the child’s or young person’s case record.
