To cut a very long story short, ds1 is 5.7yrs old and in yr1.
Every time he needed the toilet in a lesson he would get his name put up on a board on the wall and this was known as the "toilet list". I have tried to find my old thread on this but can't.
Basically my son cannot hold his wee in like other children can. When asked by said teacher to hold it in he wet and at times soiled himself. In the end he refused to go to school because of the toilet list.
We saw SENCO lady who was fab, and the writing his name on the wall has gone and he was told by SENCO that if he needed to go then he could just ask and go. She had already spoken to the teacher who isn't quite NQT but this is her 3rd year teaching and I do happen to know of other incidents where parents feel she is just lacking in experience.
The toilets are minging and stink of urine, my son hates using them. He does not use it as an excuse to leave the classroom.
So we are now back to the teacher treating him like crap when he needs the toilet. It would seem that it isn't only the words she uses but her tone of voice.
I have taken my son to the doctor and he checked him out and said he was fine and that it was perfectly normal behaviour for a 5 year old.
My son is highly sensitive and he has asked me to write a letter to his teacher asking her not to treat him this way.
What do I do now? Back to SENCO? Teacher or head teacher?
