My Ds is in P3 and has an IEP. He has been referred to a paediatrician for assesment for ADD and autism. His behaviour in school has been awful since september (although issues existed well before then but not as bad) and up until christmas. Over christmas and since his return to school he has been massively settled and only one incident of violence (slapped classroom assistant on the arm) since leaving school for xmas break.
Today his teacher told me that he spent the whole day until about 1.30 or 2pm sitting under the coats on the cloakroom hooks. She says she tried to coax him out but he wouldnt come.
I'm just wondering what should be done in this case. It doesnt feel right to me that he was there all day. I understand the teacher must teach the rest of the class but surely this cant just be what is supposed to happen? I would even rather they call me to come and get him than have him sit there all day. I dont want to accuse the teacher of not doing her job because its not a job a i could do in a million years but this is the second incident where he has just been left to his own devices. The previous time was where he went to the bathroom and was able to fill his school bag full of water. The teacher said he was in there for about 20 minutes (so obviously knew he had gone in and not come out) before he came back out again. It seems like the teacher doesnt have the resources to deal with him but it actually isnt ok because he does need to be dealt with rather than ignored until home time or until he rejoins the class.
This is probably a bit waffley but i am upset and just wondering if i am right to be and if so what to do? Or is this just fine and should i expect this from now on?
