Hi i have got some good tips from other school meeting threads but need a bit more ammo for this afternoon.
Ds is 7 in y3. has dx of adhd with autistic traits. Is on SA+. He is failing badly at the moment, he is not coping with juniors and is very oppostitional and not making any progress.
He get 45mins support x twice a week in the afternoon (it is just some random time when they have spare ta - not targeted support)
I think he needs targeted support in the mornings when they do literacy and numeracy. He is working at low level 1 and is beggining to see himself as a non achiever.
He does have iep but with target such as 'need to start work within 5mins' 'needs to sit still on carpet'
He has his own computer to write with as he finds handwriting difficult(bought by us, not school)
What should I say when they say that he needs to learn to be independent when I say he needs 1-1 support?
What do I say if they say there is just no money for more support?
Please don't say get a statement as we are in the la who 'do not give statements', we have the other 'family of schools' system.
Any help gratefully received.
