DS nearly 12 has a range of problems, including cerebral palsy, learning difficulties, suspected autism and global developmental delay as well as social and general anxieties.
He is starting yr 7 tomorrow, he thinks because everyone was nice in the transitional week back in June, that this is going to be the same always.
I have not slept proper in the last 4 nights worrying and crying.
I feel so sorry for him, bullying has never been an issue in primary.
His problems affect him in so many ways and he is unable to do things like others take for granted.
I have spoke to the senco and know the school are very anti bullying but I can't help feel like this.
He knows he can't do things like others and it's making him upset knowing that he can't run as fast as others, or doesn't understand things like others.
I'm crying as I type this because I can't bare to think of him being bullied

Poor you. I hope he gets on ok. I felt just the same as you about my daughter when she was that age but shes been fine. I think we sometimes find it harder then them.
Hopefully everyone will be just as nice as they were during transition week and he'll have a fab time. Good luck.

It must be so hard but please try not to worry 
My memory from school is what coolas has said Classmates with physical disabilities were always left alone, it was like an unwritten rule that everyone respected.
