Bristol City Council staff monitored the social media posts and photos of parents of children with special educational needs, according to new leaked documents.
The documents show staff sending council chiefs detailed data on critical social media posts about poor quality special educational needs and disability (SEND) provision, as well as personal wedding photos.
In an email sent to education bosses, one council officer said she was “working hard to uncover concrete evidence”. This appeared to include trawling through personal photos of parents’ Facebook accounts, matching them to tweets.
