Mum of autistic boy ‘made to wear bright yellow bib’ takes legal action against school

‘They know all these things. They just want to be accepted… we need to stop singling out our disabled kids.’The school’s management claimed that Joanne had previously known about the about the bib at the time of the incident – but she says it was not made clear to her.The school said the reflective vests are worn in the playground for a variety of reasons, but after Joanne complained they stopped giving him one to wear.

‘It’s clear form the way the school and the local authority have dealt with this situation that they don’t think treating a child like this is a problem,’ she said. ‘If we can hold them to account by bringing this case then I hope it will have a positive impact on the lives of other Autistic children and their families across the country.’The school referred a request for comment to Hillingdon Council, which said: ‘Cherry Lane primary school advise us that reflective vests are not compulsory wear for anyone and are only used with parental consent.

‘There is no legal case against Hillingdon Council in relation to this or any disability discrimination. Ms Logan has chosen to provide Elective Home Education for her son.’
