    Hi Karen
    Sorry to hear this?
    Have you put in a complaint to the school governers about your issue? 
    You can also get a free legal consultation about your issues which give you more info.

    Hi @Karens11
    Welcome to the community, Im sorry to hear you have had such a tough time with the school.

    All schools should have a complaints procedure and that should be detailed on their website, have you looked into this?

    Hi yes I have written to the chair of governor's and to the local education department. As I have not had a response I was wondering where do I go next. Or do I write again to them. I sent a letter in 2 weeks ago. Thanks

    Hi @Karens11

    How are you getting on? Have you heard anything back? There should be a clear process of how to complain and where to go at each step.
