Unreasonable because I already knew (she is 7) and she is actually very bright so with the right help we should be able to do well, her best, its all i want really.
But now i have this "diagnosis" I feel a bit overwhelmed by all the information (that i stuck my head in the sand and ignored really up until now) that is out there.
The teacher said i "could" have a private assesment done but it would cost £350 and be a waste of money as it woudlnt change their approach. I can't actually afford it anyway but may qualify for help???
We are to have an official meeting with the SENCO as this was the teacher taking me to one side and letting me know, she is to have an individual education plan? This is a good thing i think?
I know i shouldn't be gutted really, I now have confirmation of what i have known all along but maybe i was hoping that DD was just a "slow developer" and would catch up without intervention. Now i know that she is going to face significant difficulties with her learning and I am at a loss as to how to help her.
Looking for a kick up the bum really

AIBU?
To be gutted that the school just told me DD is moderately to severely dyslexic.
