FtT SEND also considers parents' or young persons\u2019 claims of disability discrimination in schools. The Ministry of Justice has recently published FtT SEND statistics for the 2013-14 academic year and these can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/385777/sen-tables-2014.xls.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Although the tribunal deals with appeals against local authority placements it does not deal with appeals relating to the admission processes for children with SEN in any schools nor does it deal with appeals relating to the education within schools, of children with SEN. HMCTS is therefore unable to provide the specific information that has been requested and has no role in compliance.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Appeals to the FtT SEND are against Local Authorities rather than the individual school or educational establishment. Appeals can be made for a number of reasons including, for example, where the Local Authority has refused to undertake an assessment of the child's or young person\u2019s needs or where a parent disagrees with the school named in the Education, Health and Social Care Plan provided by the Local Authority. The tribunal may, in this latter group of cases, require the local authority to amend the name of the school or other institution to that preferred by the parent or young person. That preferred school may be an academy.<\/p>"}

We do not underestimate the hard work and challenges that prison staff face on a daily basis which is why we have been working extremely closely with the police and CPS to tackle this issue. A new joint protocol produced by the Prison Service, Crown Prosecution Service and Association of Chief Police Officers will set out that when there are serious assaults on prison staff, the perpetrators will be prosecuted unless there is a good reason why not.<\/p><p>The number of assaults on staff is published in the Safety in Custody Bulletin available at this link: <a title=\"https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/safety-in-custody-statistics\" href=\"https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/safety-in-custody-statistics\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/safety-in-custody-statistics<\/a>. Table 3.1 provides the total number of staff assaults whereas the number of prisoner on officer assaults can be found in table 3.8 of the annual tables.<\/p><p>With the exception of prison officers assaulted during \u201cprisoner on officer\u201d assaults, the role of the staff member involved is not recorded and so any staff members that are assaulted in other types of assault incident cannot be identified by their specific role. The incident reporting system does not record detailed information about staff members that are assaulted and so we are not able to provide the requested breakdown. Whilst this information is not held centrally assaults on staff are taken very seriously and as such are recorded and managed locally.<\/p>"}
