DS4 (age 3) had his family service plan meeting yesterday. His SN are mostly health related and he has had 11 general anaesthetics, including 2x major 3 hour operations. He also has speech problems and global development delay.
Meeting was organised by the area senco who I don't know really, just see her once a year at meetings. The paediatrician wasn't invited (I asked for them to invite her next time) and they mostly talked about preschool and his speech delay. Is this normal, to barely mention health stuff at a meeting like that?
They also said that I need to get him to socialise more with NT children to help his language as most of the other children he knows all have SN. They said that there is no way he would get an EHCP or be able to go to the special needs school, but that he's already getting SN funding and hopefully that will continue and he will get a funded 1-1 at school next year.
Is this normal to not really consider his health needs at meetings?

Is this normal? Feel like health needs are being minimized
