Had thread about ds 8 (ASD/ADHD) and the issues we were having with new CT... and her obvious lack of understanding his conditions.
I've been having problems with the school for around a year now because frankly they are paying me lip service and not doing what they say they will. I've been accused of bullying by last years CT of being "0ver invested in his education"!
Things came to head when at ds's appointment with his paed it was decided to stop all his mediation because ds has been mentioning that "his heart hurts". I feel he is having panic attacks due to being very anxious but we clearly can't take risks with his health.
Sent a message to CT and acting SENCO (who was ds's Y2 CT) and she knows only too well how difficult he finds school without any medication. I told them that the current level of support would not be sufficient for his needs. I was told they would have a meeting that night, this was last Wednesday.
I've heard nothing and from what I can gather from ds, he is not being supported, and in fact is "getting told off" all day by the CT and class TA. He is very hyperactive and impulsive so along side his ASD he really is struggling without his medication. When I ask what he is being told off for, he says, not sitting still, shouting out, making noises, talking constantly all the time, not all his words BTW...
The final straw for me was that on Friday, he was fidgeting and talking (he does this all the time to himself) when the CT came over to his table and told him to be quiet because his talking was "nothing to do with his medication or his Autism", these are ds's words. All said at his table with 5 other children. I've asked him to explain this a number of times and he says the same.
Firstly I am furious because she shouldn't be disclosing his medication to other children but she will just deny it, so how the hell do I approach this without the accusations again. I've never had any issues before, quite a forthright confident person by nature but am definitely not a bully!
Would it be worth taking parent partnership into the next IEP meeting?with me so I at least have someone in my corner.
