Reply from Mr Grubb - or rather, a Councillor - it only took them a month!

Thank you for your email to The Lord Provost. Councillor Marilyne MacLaren, Convener of Education & Children and Families, has responded on behalf of the Council as follows:

Thank you for your email/letter on the case of Ciara McGearey. You will understand that I cannot give the details surrounding the decision of the Children and Families Department to appeal the Tribunalâ€™s decision, as it is both subjudice, and confidential regarding the childâ€™s circumstances.

I can however, assure you that this decision was not taken lightly. The Department has only appealed 2 cases out of 27 on which the Tribunal has ruled, and was successful in both these two. The well being of the child has been paramount in the deliberation of the Department, and I think it is useful to point out that the preferred option of Oaklands School is a new, purpose built facility with special features for visually impaired children. Classes are small with high staff to pupil ratio. As Oaklands is a local authority school a placement is available at no additional cost.

Yours sincerely,

Councillor Marilyne MacLaren
