    Can't answer yes or no.:

    Potentially. English case law considered that the FTT is entitled to take account of the breakdown in relationship in considering suitability of a placement and “give some weight to it”: L v Wandsworth [2006] EWHC 694 (QB)para 25. This may for example be relevant to the question of whether reasonable ALP can be made at a school.
