Looking for some advice on some incidents in school. My DS5 is in P1(scotland) and has two asd (with other SENs as well) boys in his class of 25. Since he started school there has been countless episodes of these boys (one especially) lashing out at my son. He’s had hands round his throat, face scratched, pulled by throat, nipped amongst others. And on Thursday everything has escalated to the point that all the children had to take shelter in the cloakroom because the boy was throwing chairs around the classroom 🤦🏻♀️
The attacks don’t only happen to my son, they lash out at everyone. And I’ve already asked if my son provokes them in anyway and I’ve been assured he doesn’t.
I have contacted the school multiple times with various placating methods used on me. The boys have a full-time PSA but clearly this is not a good environment for them either - and they are also getting failed. Class teacher is amazing and somehow has managed to bring my son on leaps and bounds education wise in amongst this chaos. I keep her in the loop with my complaint emails as she always says to contact management. My son is particularly sensitive so he’s starting to get concerned about going to school and lashing out a bit at home (poss rection to seeing this at school??).
I work in a school nursery so know the standards that should be achieved but not sure if this makes me more enraged by it or that I am more easily placated because I know their hands are tied with a lack of funds for SEN.
Basically...I am asking what would you do if this was your son?
I’m half way through yet another email to depute...which will no doubt lead to him just placating me again! 🤷🏻♀️
