You’re reading a lot between the lines there. I would be concerned if I had a child with special needs whom I had discussed a plan with the school but they had just done something else anyway. Are you saying parents shouldn’t be involved with discussions about their childs care? We can’t know all the details here and jumping to conclusions about the parents motivation seems premature here.
I’m not op but absolutely yeah if the kid doesn’t involve their parents it’s for a good reason. They’re not reading very much between the lines, when kids are “estranged” from their parents it’s always the parents’ fault - and even if this particular case was the 0.0001% of times where it wasn’t, that wouldn’t impact what was the right thing for teachers etc to do.
You might think differently if the estrangement had been driven by the teachers. The article isn’t clear on the timeline. I guess it’s for the courts to rule on now.
I think it’s pretty ridiculous to think that that is remotely likely. Teachers can’t just convince a kid to cut off their parents when there aren’t already extremely serious issues in the home, it’s not realistic.
You’re right of course they’re have never been any cases of teachers taking advantage of their position of trust over vulnerable pupils. It’s always a failing of the parents. /s
Don’t conflate being a supportive and trusted adult as a child navigates their identity with sexual abuse you piece of shit.
Ok, show me an example of teachers convincing kids to abandon their family then, since you seen to think there are so many
I mean just googling “teachers who have eloped with students UK” will give you a depressingly long list of examples.
It is your job to support your claims not everyone else’s.

From the search page. But for a wider view of the times teachers have exerted undue influence over children in their care: https://www.theguardian.com/education/2014/jan/16/teachers-accused-relationship-pupils-five-years mentions 1000 teachers have been accused of undue influence over a five year period.
I’m not saying the teachers in this case had any undue intentions (the court will be in a far better place to assess the facts than random internet commentators). However it should be clear that teachers can influence children to do something against the wishes of their parents, unless you posit in all these cases it was still somehow the parents fault.
