This is part of our case law series reviewing judgements relating to the implementation of the Children and Families Act 2014.
Each review looks at a specific case and explains the potential implications for parents, local authorities and sector practitioners. The reviews have been produced for us by Barrister Steve Broach.
This review looks at a case concerned with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham where the Upper Tribunal considered the proper approach to the assessment of relative placement costs for maintained and independent schools.
