An independent investigation has found improvements can be made after teachers were accused of bullying at a school for pupils with additional needs.

Parents with children at The Heights Academy in Solihull raised concerns about staff conduct, children being placed in isolation for becoming emotional, and at least one case of a pupil escaping.

One mother, Amy, alleged her 12-year-old had been "relentlessly targeted" by a teacher over a number of months, and claimed the case "wasn't investigated" by bosses.

Now, after a "thorough" investigation, the trust that runs the school has revealed some staff will have enhanced training around autism.
