Council lost control of boy's education - report

detailed how the pupil's parents wanted him to attend a specialist school for children with complex needs in Richmond Hill, however there were no spaces available until September 2023.

Despite eventually agreeing to fund a home tutor through the child's former school, according to the report, the council "did not follow through with its plans", and by July 2022, seven months later, support and funding were still not in place. The Ombudsman, who referred to the boy anonymously as 'B' throughout the report said: "In conclusion, the Council appears to have ‘lost control’ of B’s education between May 2021 when it failed to review and amend his ECH Plan and December 2022 when it agreed to consider home tutoring again".
