The Council was at fault for delay reviewing Y’s Education, Health and Care Plan and for failing to provide the special educational provision in Y’s Plan. This meant Y missed out on education he should have had and caused Y’s mother, Miss X, frustration. The Council will apologise and make symbolic payments. It will also take steps to prevent similar fault in future.
