Council's own breakdown: 'Appeals received in that period: 32. Tribunals attended by LA: 11. In favour of LA: 1. Not in favour of LA: 4. Partial agreements: 6. Resolved prior to hearings: 5. Ongoing: 5.' contested_and_council_won='In favour of LA' (1). contested_and_council_lost='Not in favour of LA' (4). resolved_before_hearing='Resolved prior to hearings' (5). 'Partial agreements' (6) mapped to partially_split rather than resolved_before_hearing because it reconciles exactly against the 'tribunals attended' figure (1 in-favour + 4 not-in-favour + 6 partial = 11 = tribunals attended), suggesting these were negotiated/mixed outcomes reached at a contested hearing rather than pre-hearing resolutions -- a judgment call, flagged here for transparency. 'Ongoing' (5) is unmapped/pending. DATA-QUALITY FLAG (already visible in this project's source caveat, and not among the previously-documented Rutland/Sheffield/Wigan/Bristol/Barnsley inconsistencies, so newly carried forward here): the itemised categories (1+4+6+5+5=21) do not sum to the stated 'Appeals received' headline of 32, leaving 11 appeals unaccounted for (possibly straightforward withdrawals not separately itemised, but not stated by the council) -- transcribed exactly as reported without adjustment.

LBC REQUEST - FOI SEND provision

Successful

Requested by Fraser Knight on 2024-11-01 · answered 2024-11-27 · covers 2019-2024 (aggregate total, 1 Jan 2019 to 1 Oct 2024, not broken down by year)

"Appeals received in that period: 32. Tribunals attended by LA: 11. In favour of LA: 1. Not in favour of LA: 4. Partial agreements: 6. Resolved prior to hearings: 5. Ongoing: 5." SEND provision spend: £91,109,336.70 total for the period. Legal team spend on SEND appeals: £0.

Caveat: Aggregate figures for the whole ~5.75-year period, not broken down by individual year. Category totals do not fully reconcile against the headline figure of 32 appeals received (1 in favour + 4 not in favour + 6 partial + 5 resolved prior + 5 ongoing = 21 of 32 accounted for) - transcribed exactly as reported by the council without adjustment or recalculation.
