Choose the situation closest to yours

You will get a clear sequence of steps, the right tools, and the legal grounding you need. If you are not sure which fits, or if your situation is complex, book a situation review and we will work through it together.

Exclusion

My child has been excluded or is at risk of exclusion

Fixed-term, permanent exclusion, isolation, or off-rolling. The school has obligations and there is a clear statutory process.

Start with exclusion support
Racial incident

My child has experienced a racist incident at school

The school has minimised it, failed to record it, or not responded adequately. Here is what to do now.

Start with the incident response
SEND

My child needs support but the school says no

Delays, refusals, and unmet need in the EHCP process. You have statutory rights at every stage.

Start with SEND support
No response

I raised a concern and the school is not acting

You have already said something. Now the school is dismissing it, delaying, or going quiet.

Start with school not responding
Ongoing issue

This has been going on for months

Stop reacting to each incident in isolation. Start documenting the pattern and building a record that holds under formal challenge.

Start building your case

Schools and institutions

Schools

I am a school, trust, or local authority

You are dealing with escalating parent conflict, repeated complaints, or a breakdown in trust with African and Global Majority families. You want to understand where the problem sits and what a structured response looks like.

Not sure which fits? Start with a School Situation Review and we will work out the right starting point together.
