A Lanarkshire mum is embroiled in a row with North Lanarkshire Council after refusing to send her 'autistic' five-year-old daughter to mainstream school after the youngster was turned down for an Additional Support Needs (ASN) school place.
Danielle Ferrie fears she will have to give up work rather than subject her daughter Charleigh to "pure hell" by attending a mainstream school.
She applied for a place at Firpark School but the request has been rejected by the council's education department.
