Hi
I had previously posted in SEN section but was advised here may be better for traffic.
Dd is 6 yo and in year one. She was late to reach milestones mainly gross motor delay and has had a mri Eeg and various bloods done.
Mri showed a shadow which wasnt thought to be of significance a abnormal eeg and a raised level of creatine kinase also low calcium levels. It was decided that a watch and wait approach was best although not much watching happened. But as of now she is quite far behind academically.
School senco has referred dd for ot, assessment with ed psych and some sort of assessment sheet for spd.
Today I signed a report written up by the senco which included my thinking, hers and dd class teacher I noticed it said caf at the top. Upon googling caf I haven't read much other than bad experiences. Im not at all clued up so have a couple of questions if thats ok?.
What exactly is caf?. Will dd be diagnosed by the ed psych if needs be. Sorry if any information is missing or the post is a bit rambling.
Im grateful for any answers.
Thank you
