.Judicial Summary
This decision follows AB v Newport City Council [2022] UKUT 190 (AAC) and decides that a review decision of the Education Tribunal for Wales (ETW) is appealable to the Upper Tribunal under section 81 of the Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018. As a result, the claim for judicial review of the ETW’s review decision was dismissed as the challenge could (and indeed had) be brought by way of an appeal to the Upper Tribunal against the review decision.
