The Sybil Elgar School

My son attended this school for 10 years and made very little progress. The school did not carry out any assessments and I had to hire private consultants to do so. I was even criticised by the Deputy Principal for hiring private consultants to assess my son, which is not only my parental right, but the school had failed to carry out any assessments of my son. The school Deputy Principal scaped-goated me and accused me of neglecting my son instead of taking ownership of the schools failures. I was victimised and ill-treated because the Deputy principal was unhappy that I was trying to move my son to a school who could better meet his needs and told lies to Social Services. Despite being exonerated by other agencies, including Social Services, the school has refused to apologise for the unethical behaviour of their staff member. A disgrace to the late Sybil Elgar, and the National Autistic Society.
