Felling nervous and excited at the same time. I have butterflies. I thinks I am ready but worried I will forget something. While I know I could lose I am comforted by the fact that the LA's actions have shown they are worried they will lose.

Thanks for they advice you all have given.

Good luck. It will be a long and tough day so make sure you are kind to yourself. It also took me by surprise how little I slept that night having come home exhausted, so if you can plan a calm quiet day on Weds to have a bit of catch up on life.
Be calm, you can do this.

Thank you all for the support. I can't wait till this time tomorrow when it will be over. I am wondering what this process will do to our relationship with school too. X

Thinking of you too. And saying a prayer (if that's ok).

Can you make a really nice packed lunch for yourself?
Or if not, is it possible to stop in at somewhere en route and buy the poshest sandwich from the super-deluxe range? Never hurts to plan a few ridiculous, petty, secret victories... like out-lunching the opposition Wink

Thank you all for the good wishes.
It's finally all over now. I now have the dreaded 2 week wait.
I think it went as well as it could have. The panel were certainly experienced and asked the right questions. The set up did put me at ease but I am still very pleased I did not do it alone. Although another witness may have helped.
I am so full of adrenaline.
Please please please let us win!

Sounds positive. You're an amazing mum.

Glad it went ok. It's over. Whatever happens, you did it and made them argue their case.

Glad it went well. In my naivety I thought Tribunals gave their judgement on the day. So this is an eye-opener that they go away for agonising weeks to ponder!
