I have my first meeting with the SENCO this week re ds2.
ds2 is currently followed by CAMHS (I am hopping that they will finally start to do a proper assessment for AS). Last time I saw them they told me not to tell the school .
However, following parents evening, it is becoming appearant that ds2 IS struggling. His teacher has already tried to put something in place (TA working with him on a 1-1 basis some of the time) but he seems not to 'appreciate' the help so she isn't sure that this is actually a help for him.
She also has noticed similar things than me (lack of eye contact, not always understanding what is going on, likes to do things 'his' way, freezes if you tell him to do it another way...).
So, any advice as to what I need to say/do with the SENCO?
What I would like to see is a real picture of what is going on in class (ds2 says nothing at all about what happens in class) but also an evaluation from an Ed Psy and an assessment from SALT (Teacher agrees on that too).
Is that a good aim for the first meeting?
