Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the period specified in the enforcement notice for compliance (9 months) falls short of what should reasonably be allowed

What decided it

The best interests of the child enrolled in specialist education and the significant risk that the appellants could not find suitable alternative accommodation within 9 months, balanced against the need to provide a reasonable compliance period, justified extending the period to 12 months.
