Hello you lovely people
My ds is in YR 1 (nearly 6yrs old) and after a 4 hard years we finally have a CAMHS meeting in Dec and have also been referred by GP (2nd time round) to dev paed for assessment too. He's been referred to OT as well for support with his sensory and processing issues.
The SENCO and in house EP have been amazing and are putting in place a nurture group( no self esteem) making some social stories for him ( lets other children hit and push him but he thinks they are friends) and are supporting him as if the dx has come for being HFA ASD.
I have a meeting on Monday with the Head to talk about my DS attending a Forest School in the pm of Friday.
The head said she would talk to some people and we can chat arrangements on Mon as its been done before in this school.
My idea would be for him to rest Friday morning and then attend Forest school in the afternoon for 2 hrs ( den building, tool using, making camp and learning about bugs)
His 2 teachers said he is academically very able and loved reading and writing. He has a project book between home and school to extend when work is finished and I thought he could use his outdoor time to create a project book.
They had the Forest School in Reception and he loved it and thrived and its all becoming a bit much for him. Its as though he can just about cope through to midweek and then we start with the toileting issues, lack of focuses and noises in class ( which I explained is a sign he is under immense stress and seems to happen after about 3 days into school)
DH thinks we should compromise and let him go in for the morning and I collect him at 12.
What would you do or think? Obviously we could review it and also see what CAMHS think.
Thank you in advance need to head to bed as I know it will be a rough night ahead x x x
Oh dear is a bit long- sorry
