A “heartbroken” Liverpool mum has raised concerns about her son being moved to his fourth school amid his complex educational needs.
Ashlea Rimmer has said she fears for her son, Alfie, eight, when the new school term starts after the family were told he would be moved from a specialist one-to-one provision to Hope School in Belle Vale. Alfie has autism, ADHD and mental health issues.
Ashlea told the ECHO how her son initially began his schooling in a mainstream setting but was transferred to a special location to meet his needs. This took a toll on the family, travelling 64 miles a day from the Wirral.
