My DD attends a community school and is in Y6. For academics, she is in a self-contained Special Education class, but is integrated with other classes for other subjects. She is with a Y2 class for music and does some other bits with a spit Y3/4 class. However... she has a Y6 home form.
As she moves through school, she is allowed less and less contact with her "proper" peer group (Y6). While developmentally she does fit better with the younger students, she is aware that she is a Y6 student, and wants to be included.
Wednesday is picture day, and I got a message from her ES today asking if I was OK with her being included in the Y3/4 class photo. I feel it is not my choice, and DD has already said she wants to be in the picture of the "proper" year.
I think DD should have a say in this, and her wishes should be respected. Yes, she is disabled, but she still has a voice.
Am I out of line by insisting she be included with her peers?
