News I have read does cover that he attended a secondary school for those with social, emotional and behavioural needs but doesn't say he has any learning disability (or disorder) or behaviour, psychological disorder or other medical condition that affects understanding or behaviour. The actual school he attended does say on their site "may have a range of additional supports needs (ASN) that may include diagnosed medical conditions or they may simply have found it too stressful and overwhelming to make a success of mainstream education."
Agree if severe special needs his, her names, image should be considered by judge to exclude but it very much needs to still be reported.
This case involves; foster care, victim suffering prior sexual assault by different Individual, social services, child safety, questions on how much contact she should have been allowed with her brother and home, school distance from him when prior concerns etc.. I think the public, journalist, especially full government needs awareness and possibly act as oversight, holding the institutions accountable, child saftey priotized. Myself also to look into levels of funding in comparison to other areas, possibly consider when voting for local or central government.

My understanding 2022 was Ruth Perry's first Ofsted inspection at Caversham primary, '13 years' as head teacher there. Prior was in 2009 when Mrs Chris Tomkins was head teacher. According to Ofsted website. Also 3,000 schools have not been inspected for a decade or more:
2022 Rated Inadequate based on evaluation of child safeguarding procedures, knowledge and records.
'When will my school be inspected?'
12 June 2023 Goverment online guide
' A school judged outstanding or good will usually be inspected within the 4 academic years following its last inspection.
A school judged requires improvement or inadequate will usually be inspected within two and a half years.
However, the picture is currently a bit more complicated, for several reasons, including:
...the government lifted the inspection exemption for outstanding schools; this added 3,000 schools to the schedule, *many of which have not been inspected for a decade or more*. '
Why wasn't a new head teacher evaluated sooner, took 13 years?
Cost cutting by the goverment?
Was it their decision or poor/intentional regulations. Ofsteds decision /longterm backlog/underfunding/mismanagement?
'An inspection report, published on Ofsted’s website in March, said school leaders did not have the “required knowledge to keep pupils safe from harm”, did not take “prompt and proper actions” and had not ensured safeguarding was “effective”.
The inquest heard that the local authority and the school’s board of governors later decided not to challenge Ofsted’s rating of “inadequate”.'

'Kian Durnin, aged 22, had been driving the car, with Tireq McIntosh, 23, in the front passenger seat.
Both men had fired guns, while Martinho De Sousa, aged 24, was a back-seat passenger.
In interview, Durnin and McIntosh denied any involvement, while De Sousa made no comment.
A girl aged 11 who was playing in the Shelley Road park was hit in the leg, while a boy aged 15 on a bike in the neighbouring car park was hit just below the knee.
Det Insp Francis Nock, from our Major Crime Team, said: “At least six shots were fired and it’s by sheer luck that these two children weren’t more seriously injured or killed.
“Thankfully, they have both made recoveries from their physical wounds. But this has left their families shattered.
“We may never know who the intended targets were, or why the shooting happened, but we believe it involved tensions between gangs in the Wolverhampton area, and may be connected to illegal drugs.
“Our recently created Major Crime Team had the resources and expertise to put a huge amount of officers into this investigation, reviewing more than 2,000 hours of CCTV and exploring countless lines of enquiry.
While the weapons used in this attack have not been found, we’ve had significant success in taking guns off the streets of the West Midlands, with 134 seizures so far this calendar year (up from 121 in all of 2022) and 40 fewer shootings compared to last year.
We’ve made a number of key arrests of in recent weeks, taking 20 firearms off the street during this month alone.'

@stuartannetts300 Regarding your new question, if his language use was relevant.
KC's prior questioning of Cummings included: "You called ministers, useless f* pigs, morons, c* in emails and WhatsApp messages. Do you think you contributed to a lack of effectiveness on the part of ministers?"
Personally if someone is intimidating or unreasonable in emails, messages, along with misogynistic remarks, that leads to poor work relationships, not sharing information, possible solutions or asking for help or speaking of errors, wrongs. Fear. Fear of asking a question that may be considered daft or unreasonable when could be a solution.
Cummings described his office being contacted with enquiries by councils if they should "book ice rinks" to store bodies. A suggestion like that may not be asked by his immediate staff, colleagues if he is a bully / poor management, people skills. So yes it does have direct relevance to the covid inquiries.
Inquires are usually guided by a terms of reference, framework. However they can be adapted... “amend them if he considers that the public interest so requires”
My understanding is this Inquiry is a fact finding mission, so they will be searching for any factors that maybe relevant. Much like a coroner's inquest. The purpose of which is to help prevent future deaths. Not to name who is guilty but it may become apparent during proceedings. Being a covid inquiry, I think that's a relevant comparison.
The questions are also from a KC / lawyers not the goverment / ministers etc.. So should be impartial, no politically motivated 'mudslinging'.

Additionally, the stabbing victim was previously arrested/charged for possession of a knife. (Explained as/by family as, that he were holding the knife for another person). Info was briefly mentioned in the BBC documentary on this case. From recollection, it did not go into any detail of victim's prior/s, i think it was the mother's words, documentary was focused on his family, trial, their involvement, so likely biased, limited. Sadly, the young cousin, she described boys, teens are seen by some girls (and think she said, herself previously) find the boys who carry knives as desirable, interesting, cool (description along those lines) Recommend viewing. I'm even more concerned.
