In October 2016, I announced my intention to investigate the use of seclusion in schools. This followed complaints from the parents of a student who attended Ruru Specialist School (Ruru) in Invercargill, and from the mother (‘Ms A’) of a student (‘B’) who attended Miramar Central School (Miramar) in Wellington.

This report sets out my opinion in relation to Ms A’s complaint.
