Ds is due to sit year 6 sats. He has ASD but high functioning so more than able. School have said he will get special provisions e.g. A scribe, seperate room, learning breaks etc... HOWEVER its causing so so many problems. He has severe anxiety. Camhs are going to start him on fluoxetine it's that bad. I spoke to the head about withdrawing him and all she said was he had to do them and if I kept him off that week he would have to do them when he was back in.
There are a lot of other factors going on at home that are contributing to his anxiety and I really don't want him sitting them as it's making him worse. Does anyone know where I stand legally? Or if there's anyway to make sure he doesn't actually have to sit them? I know schools can take a particular child out of the equation but they are saying he has to.
I'd appreciate any help or where I can go for guidance on this?
