Disagreement resolution
From January 2002 Local Authorities (LA) must make arrangements for avoiding or resolving disagreements about Special Educational Needs (SEN) that parents have with the LA or schools.
To help prevent difficulties developing into disagreements; parents, schools and LAs should attempt to resolve issues as soon as they become apparent by working together.
Problems can be solved at a number of levels, from school-based resolution where the issue is resolved by the parent and school working together, to an SEN Tribunal when parents disagree with the decisions made by the LA about a child's SEN.
