Sending Home ?? An illegal exclusion

bigbird1

Hello, Can anyone help ?

I am confused, can a school send home a child on the grounds of behaviour but not record this as an exclusion ?

My son's mainstream junior school has called me 5 times to pick him up and take him home on the grounds of his behaviour. My son has Asd and a statement.

Having done lots of reading online am confused as to whether these sending homes are illegal exclusions or  not ??

I cant see anywhere if schools can send children home without having to formally record the absence in some way ? Help !!

Thanks x

  • I don't know anything about the law, but my instincts tell me, your child has a right of education under law and to be excluded is actually the school breaking the Law. So the reason why it is not recorded as an exclusion is because the school knows this fact ! Constructive exclusion even worse !

    Why don't you phone up the school master and tell him, sorry for your sons bad behaviour but you have now spanked him ! Surprised .. talk about going back in time. !!!! Yell

    Seriously if your child has an autism condition,, maybe under these grounds the removal from school was part of his care plan at school so he was moved to a calmer familiar place, i.e home for this own safety(god, I should be a lawyer). So it depends on the context of the situation, but I think the school has too work with you on this one for the benefit of the child.
