Reports on research undertaken with those who make decisions on residential school placements and the professionals whose job it is to support families and disabled young people. The views and experiences of parents and disabled children who are at residential schools are at the heart of this report. They raise difficult questions about why placements are made, whether they are in fact the best way to meet children's needs, and how well local authorities meet their obligations and monitor the welfare of disabled children at residential schools.
