A photography firm, Tempest Photography, faced criticism for offering an option to exclude children with complex needs from class photos at Aboyne Primary School. The firm later apologized for the incident, acknowledging it was not standard procedure. Aberdeenshire Council intervened to have the images removed and apologized for the distress caused. A parent, Natalie Pinnell, expressed devastation at the exclusion of her daughter from the photographs. The company took the photos without children with additional needs present. The incident has sparked outrage and sadness among parents and carers.
