DS2 - seven next week - has had lots of SALT assessment resulting in a 'diagnosis' of Speech, Language and Communication Needs (SLCN). This may be primary or secondary to as yet undiagnosed ASD. The school have also called in the EP who has visited twice to observe him, once to talk to me and once to perform BAS.
She phoned me yesterday to say that she will be going in to visit him on several more occasions and that she is 'on stand-by' to visit him on the day if the teachers alert her.
This is apparently because he randomly has good and bad days and the teachers want the EP to see what they have to deal with on a bad day.
Having got over the shock of multiple EP visits I am wondering whether these differences are really random. The EP felt the same and has questioned teachers but they insist that behaviour is random. The way they see it on some days he just does not engage and completely ignores their requests. I have told them that he is only young and that all kids do that but they insist there is a problem (I couldn't resist )
Can anybody suggest what might be going on?
