A young man with special needs received a €150,000 settlement for lack of education from ages 15 to 18.

A young man with special needs has been awarded a €75,000 settlement, plus €75,000 in costs, after the High Court ruled that authorities failed to provide him with compulsory education from ages 15 to 18. Diagnosed with classical autism and a mild learning disability, he was suspended from school due to behavioral issues, and despite his mother’s efforts, he was never re-enrolled. He is now doing well in adult disability services.
