2004年《教育（额外学习支助）（苏格兰）法》的目的之一是增加父母在子女教育方面的权利。除了设立苏格兰额外支助需求法庭外，父母还被赋予了通过调解和独立裁决对地方当局的决定提出质疑的新权利。根据鼓励适度解决纠纷的更广泛的社会政策主旨，也鼓励在学校和地方当局一级解决纠纷。本文采用关键的线人访谈，探讨新的纠纷解决安排的意见，以及权力的平衡是否确实倾向于父母。地方教育当局官员对新措施表示了一些担忧，并特别批评法庭，理由是它既昂贵又有压力，尽管它在收紧程序方面可能发挥的作用也得到了承认。另一方面，倡导团体和家长组织欢迎新措施，但对限制诉诸法庭的规则以及调解和裁决的结果不具法律约束力表示关切。他们还对获得信息和宣传的机会有限表示关切。总的来说，主要的受访者认为，新措施在一定程度上提高了父母的权利，尽管需要进一步的改革，以实现彻底转变，摆脱战后苏格兰官僚主义和专业主义的主导地位。
The Education (Additional Support for Learning) (Scotland) Act 2004 aimed, among other things, to increase parents’ rights in relation to the education of their children. In addition to the creation of the Additional Supports Needs Tribunals for Scotland, parents were given new rights to challenge local authority decisions through mediation and independent adjudication. In line with the wider social policy thrust of encouraging proportionate dispute resolution, low‐level resolution of disputes at school and local authority level was also encouraged. This paper uses key informant interviews to explore the views of new dispute resolution arrangements, and whether the balance of power has indeed tipped in favour of parents. Local education authority officers expressed some concerns about the new measures, and were particularly critical of the tribunal on the grounds that it was expensive and stressful, although the role it might play in tightening up procedures was also recognised. Advocacy groups and parents’ organisations, on the other hand, welcomed the new measures but were concerned about the rules restricting access to the tribunal and the fact that the outcome of mediation and adjudications were not legally binding. They were also concerned about limited access to information and advocacy. Overall, key informants believed that the new measures had advanced parents’ rights to some extent, although further changes were needed to achieve a radical shift away from the post‐war dominance of bureaucracy and professionalism in Scotland.
