Two days ago I got the Ed Psych report. Even the nursery teacher commented they'd seen DS on a 'good day'. So the report summary says DS behaviour is appropriate, and basically that he doesn't need any extra support.
Today, paediatrician's report arrives saying DS would benefit from one-to-one support in a small class size and needs constant supervision. I read this as needing a specialist school or at least one with a resouce base.
We have only just sent our request for statutory assessment, so I've no idea how this is going to look to SEN team at local authority. It seems to be two extremes.
So, after going to talk to the SENCO about how confused and stressed we're all getting about this, we've agreed to have a team around the child meeting.
Is there anything else we should be doing? Is it worth getting a private Ed Psych in at some point to do a second opinion?
I'm starting to feel more and more muddled, rather than less so... Any thoughts anyone?
Many thanks.
