DD1, Y2, HFA. Academically ahead, socially behind.
"Final" Statement came 10 March. Was leakier than a sieve, a festering bag of shite without any support in it :/
I say "final" because the junior school wasnt named, and i was told an 'amended final' would be along soon to address that. It didnt happen.
We appealed. Tribunal date is 30 September.
LA seem to be desperate to avoid going to tribunal. They sent in their 'signed response' on 25 May and it said they still intended to contest the appeal, but that they wanted to issue a 'working document' for us all to work on.
LA officer said today that she has a meeting with the senco at the Juniors to write this 'working document' on 21 June and will get it to us asap afterwards. (which usually means a month later, sigh)
I am worried. If DD1 starts juniors without support in place, its going to go to shit faster than the speed of light, and she's going to crash. At the mo she is confident, happy, and doing v well in infants...
Am i doing the right thing by working with the LA, trying to negotiate etc, or should i be holding uot for a tribunal date that is going to come 25 days too late (school resumes 5 Sept) ???
