DS is 12 and in Y7. He's got a lovely friendship group and is doing well in school: "working above" the expected standard in most "academic" subjects and glowing report for attitude to learning. Problem is he hates school. He has mild SEN (mainly motor skill related, but does also mean he finds organisation more difficult).
He just finds school really tiring and stressful. He feels like he hasn't adapt to secondary school yet (lockdown hasn't helped). He feels he has to put 100% effort in to meet the standard but the amount of effort he's putting in isn't sustainable (particularly given he's in year 7 and the workload will increase). I am going to talk to the SENCO, but I just wondered if anyone had any suggestions or similar experiences?
