CASE STUDY

“We were guardian to a child who moved schools after GCSEs to begin an A-level programme elsewhere.

The child had experienced a lot of mental health issues during her time at the first school, and was supported by us.

She was moved to a new school by her father but her health details were not disclosed. The father asked us not to inform the new school but we explained it was our duty to share the information we had.

We made sure that the new school was entirely aware and put them in touch with the DSL at her previous school so all issues were clear.

The student made a successful transition to the new school and continued to stay with her regular host family, who knew her well, during the half terms for continuity.”
