Key legal question
Whether private trade-school costs for a son's vocational training qualify as disability-related deductible expenses.
Extracted holding
The costs were not deductible because the son successfully completed an ordinary vocational education and no additional disability-specific educational measures were shown to be necessary.
Extracted reasoning
Although the son had a disability within the meaning of the equality law, the decisive question was whether the challenged costs were direct consequences of the disability. The record did not show that he needed additional special support for the trade school or that the school constituted a necessary integration measure. The chosen vocational path was a normal training route also open to non-disabled persons.
