Can any one help? My son who has CP is unhappy at his school. He has been moved to a class of able bodied children with learning difficulties, but all the physically handicapped children have remained in another part of the school. His new classroom is upstairs, with no lift either, and his limited walking is very unsteady. Our local authority has issued a new statement saying he should remain at that school, we are unhappy about this as we feel the school is unsuitable. What do you think! should our son have to be singled out in this way, in a setting which is unsafe with his mobility problems, comments would be appreciated.
