Updates from the DfE
Schools Adjudicator
The annual report of the Schools Adjudicator draws attention to a small but increasing number of schools (mostly secondary presently) that are refusing to be named on a child's EHCP. The report reflects the pressures on special school places across the country as well and concerns about the length of time it can take to resolve a "direction to place" case. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/65fc23dd65ca2f001b7da75b/OSA_Annual_Report_2023.pdf
