Just trying to work it how to make it work for the best.
Ds10 is nearing the end of primary so need to make decisions. He's autistic and profoundly gifted on assessment. He's had a crap primary time. Reduced timetables, isolation, bullied, repeated exclusions followed by a year at home waiting for EHCP and diagnosis etc.
He's now in an amazing, supportive, nurturing and utterly fabulous autism school. He's literally a changed child because his needs are being met. I've realised how much a mainstream environment was damaging him. He can stay until 16 and they do 8 GCSEs.
How do we make it the best we can? There's no options. Learning ability is generally fairly low so I wonder if they can cater for his ability long term. He absolutely needs to stay there and he wants to but how do I make sure we give him the best chance academically too.....
