Hi,
DS1 has just finished reception. He completed all stages of the Foundation Stage Profile, apart from his emotional and social development which is way below. We've been heavily involved through the school year with social stories and other techniques, but the report now says there are real concerns about his social awareness and impact on others etc.
Its become more apparent with social situations that he really does struggle, and having done some courses on the school suggestion at the local Austism unit it does seem like its pointing to Aspergers.
I have a GP appointment in the morning, on their recommendation. What next? Do I ask for a Paed referral? Or does the GP go forward with this? The school will support us I should imagine, on the back of this report and situations that have occured in school (had several meetings with Head and his teacher and the TA). He is 5 next week, and so so intelligent and clever, but as he is growing older the social struggles and lack of development are really becoming apparent.
Thanks
