The education experts at Robson Forensic can provide school/district comparisons to facilitate the resolution of legal disputes regarding which educational option is most appropriate given the specific needs of individual learners.

School/district comparative analyses are multi-faceted and tailored to consider a multitude of variables that may be unique to the child, available schooling options, communities, and other relevant social dynamics.

These analyses are performed by highly experienced, education experts with specializations in school administration, curriculum and instruction, psychology, and/or special education. Most projects culminate in a written report; however, deposition or trial testimony is also available.

Assessing Student Needs & History of Achievement

Our experts consider the academic, social/emotional, behavioral, physical, and cognitive development of each child. These factors are evaluated while simultaneously considering the geographical location of the schools and districts, community engagement, and the special needs and/or accommodations available to the child.

School Attributes

Robson Forensic experts review the academic attributes of the school(s) and accompanying school district, which may include, among others: 

• Ratings
• Graduation rates
• Suspension rates
• Extra-curricular activities
• Education and supervision ratios
• Specialized staff
• Racial diversity factors
• School and community resources available to the child and their families 

Family / Community Factors

Student and family connection to  community within a school and district, and within a community itself, are also components of consideration and evaluation in school comparison investigations. This may include family support networks, community resources, and relationships between schools, school leadership, families, and students.

Educational comparisons are often requested as a component of custody or special education disputes, which can both be emotionally charged and highly contentious. Robson Forensic approaches these projects objectively with irrefutable expertise in education combined with experience consulting in legal disputes.
