Dear Ms Pullar
Thank you for your recent enquiry for information held by the Council.
Unfortunately we are unable to process your request as we have
insufficient detail from you to identify the information you require.
Your request refers to "disabled" children, do you mean all children with
Special Educational Needs?
Also, when you refer to 2012/13, 2013/14, etc, are you referring to
academic or financial years?
When we have received your response, we will contact you again to provide
details of when you might expect to receive the information from us.
Any future correspondence you may have with the Council in relation to
this matter should be sent to Daniela Hanson, Bedford Borough Council,
Cauldwell Street, Bedford, MK42 9AP.
Yours sincerely
Daniela Hanson
