Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the canton had to reimburse private school costs as special education after 31 July 2010.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No reimbursement was owed because the private school was not officially designated as a special-education placement and the parents had unilaterally enrolled the child there without an official assignment.
Extrahierte Begründung
The constitutional right guarantees adequate, not optimal, schooling. The authorities had not ordered the private school as the special-education site, and the school lacked public recognition as a special-education institution; the exceptional administrative practice required qualified special-needs teaching that was not shown here.
