We cannot investigate this complaint about the Council naming a school Mrs X’s child that allegedly made discriminatory comments about the child’s special educational needs. Mrs X has used her right of appeal to a Tribunal, and we cannot consider what educational provision the Council should have offered. Where the school’s alleged actions may not directly concern its suitability, they are the actions of a school, and we are legally prevented from investigating them.
