DS has autism. He is in a mainstream school (panel meeting today about him going to a special school)
Anyway he has severely challenging behaviour and school decided to put him on half days.
I picked DS up at dinner time and put him in his SN buggy. DS said 'oo my thumb hurts' I kissed it better and carried on home. When I got home I realised he couldn't hold his fork and he started really crying, asked him to make a fist and he couldn't.
So after this I called a taxi to take us to A&E and phoned school to see if they could tell me what happened. No they didn't know he had hurt his thumb. Ok.
I took him to A&E and turned out he had fractured it.
I phoned school today to find out if he was safe there if they didn't notice what happened (to be fair DS throws himself about a lot) and they just said they didn't notice and wouldn't say he did or didn't do it in school. He then went on to say DS would probably be excluded on monday when he goes full time again anyway.
I don't want to send him back, this is the last in a long line of things that I am not happy with (them talking to him badly, bandages being soaked in wee and not noticed, being sent home covered in poo, injuries gone un noticed etc)
Would I be unreasonable to not take him back? What are the legal things around this?
