Schools: Civil Proceedings
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what information her Department holds on the number of legal cases against schools for claimed (a) disability discrimination and (b) a failure to make reasonable adjustments.
Answered by Sarah Sackman
Information about appeals to the First-tier Tribunal for Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND), which includes disability discrimination in schools, is published at: www.gov.uk/government/collections/tribunals-statistics.
Failure to make reasonable adjustments is not recorded as a separate category of disability discrimination.
Those claims will be included in the “uncategorised” data set.
