My daughter is 7 (y3) and has been bullied since she was in reception. I have really tried to work with the school but the short version is that they refuse to acknowledge the bullying. The school have denied that there is a problem to our GP and also to the LA when I submitted a request to move schools.
My daughter was disagnosed with anxiety when she was 5. My daughters anxiety has progressed and she is deteriorating. My GP has now referred her to cahms
In September my daughter simply did not want to return to school - she refused to sleep until 4.30 am the night before they were due to return. She completed 3 days. My daughter was getting more and more anxious about school to the point where it triggers an abdominal migraine and causes her to be very sick and in pain.
She has barely been at school since they returned in Sept and our GP has now referred her to a specialist for the migraines
All local schools are full and I have an appeal in place to be heard early next week and hopefully a decision by the end of that week.
My problem in the short term is my daughters attendance - she is almost at the level of being referred to ed welfare officer and Im not sure how to manage this until we get a decision regarding our appeal.
If we fail at appeal then I will withdraw her and home educate unless a place becomes at a nearby school.
Im reluctant to deregister in case it has a detrimental effect on the appeal - our GP is happy to provide letters to cover absences that we have already taken but isnt sure if he can sign a child off for yet another 10 days ??
I ve lost all faith in the school and dont really want to have a meeting with them as I feel it is pointless. I need a plan of action to get us through the next 10 days - I just dont know what to do for the best
