Upper Tribunal Administrative Appeals Chamber decision by Judge Ward on 15 August 2018

Read the full decision in HS/1469/2018.

Judicial Summary

When considering the “appropriateness” of provision, an FtT making adequate findings, grounded in the evdience, as to a child’s opposition to attending a school, when that opposition arises as an aspect of his special educational needs, did not err in law by holding that by reason of that unmanageable opposition alone, otherwise appropriate educational provision was inappropriate.
