Some of the payment was to reflect the impact of a loss of 42 weeks of education
Initially, the application for an EHCP was dismissed by the county council after nine weeks – three weeks after the statutory time limit.
As a result the Ombudsman directed the county council to apologise for the delays to the child’s mum and to pay her £400. Allowing for school holidays, the Ombudsman directed the council to pay the family £600 per month to acknowledge the impact of a loss of 42 weeks of education – resulting in a further payment of £6,000.
Commenting on the findings of the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman, a spokesperson for the county council apologised to the family and highlighted the “unprecedented increase in requests for specialist provision” being made.
