DS is getting his Statement of SEN I got to put another
I have received the proposed statement in the post today and burst into tears of both upset and joy. What a confused feeling!
However on reading it I am now bemused as this is the first time I have ever looked at one of these.
It does not state anywhere about any funded 1 to 1 hours? I scoured it and its nowhere so I rang the casework officer and asked her to go through this with me and pointed out that I am lost and cant see the hours. Now her answer was......."The statements are now laid out differently. You will see we now list the objectives and provision in Part 3"
I advised her that I cannot see the hours there and she said the school will have funding and checked and advised me that they are to receive 25 hours funding and this is a very high amount. (school already had 15 hrs inclusion funding and fund the rest themselves)
I told her thank you that is good but surely it should be mentioned on the statement? I got a strange convo then about it is best to have a meeting with the school to discuss how they intend to use the funding and what proceedures they are going to put into place that ties in with this statement.
Now I am confused. Is there a new way of doing things? I thought it should be on the statement especially as he will be moving to juniors in Sept and whilst this school realise that he cant cope without 1 to 1 the next just may not see it that way?
Can anyone advise me please?
