Hi,
appologies firstly if i have posted this in the wrong place, but i had no idea where to put it, this is my 1st post.
My son is 3 and has been attending school nursry which is not within my school catchment area along with is older sister who is leaving this year to attend secondary school.
My son currently done not have any diagnosis but he has been seen by numerous peads who are saying that it is more than likely to be high functioning asd, we are at the socila communication clinic in july for his final diagnosis, this is along with other problems such as extreme hypermobilty assessed age of 15 months in gross motor movement, straechy skin, very poor muscle tone and much much more.
He has been refused a place at school as he does not have a statement of special educational needs, this is all new to me but it was my understanding that a statement of needs would not be given to a child so young unless it was an obvious condition (am i wrong??) i have not been offered a place in any other school at to be honest would not think my son would cope if he was moved shcool...
sorry i really seemed to have waffled on here and not really said much! i was just wondering if anyone has had any experience of the appeal process in a situation like this, any advice on where i go and what i should be doing would be great... i have until friday to put my appeal in writing, i have the support of the pead and SALT is there any thing else i should be doing??? HELLLPPP!!!
