    Can't answer yes or no.:

    This depends on whether such provision would be additional to or different from that made generally for others of the same age in mainstream nurseries, School’s or FEIs, because children are often grouped as part of the curriculum for Wales.  If the child needs small group teaching when not all children in a mainstream school would be getting it, or to be in classes smaller than in a mainstream school, then that is likely to be ALP: H v Leicestershire [2000] ELR 471 (decided on the old English law and so persuasive only for the ETW).
