Ds is 9 YR4 ASD/ADHD. He doesn't have a statement/EHCP (although I'm just about to apply for one, and gathering info before doing so).
I've always had a good relationship with SENCO, but not with CT's who talk the talk during meetings then go and do as they please. I love evidence/facts and when I press for these, they interpret this as interference/bullying behaviour! I've always remained professional but will admit to being direct, I don't beat around the bush, just ask the question so to speak.
Anyhow, I've asked for a meeting since I've collated information from home/school communication book and have listed incidents below, I would be really grateful if you would share with me your thoughts on what level of support you think he might need... I appreciate you don't know him. He currently has been downgraded to only needing school funding, whereas before he had some additional county funding. I am being told in meeting by his current and previous CT's that they find it hard to quantify what additional support he needs!

To give her credit this years CT is the first one to be completely honest with her entries in the book, others have never written anything similar.
Given the above what are you thoughts, as far as I can detect from the wording in the book is that the expectations are all on ds's shoulders... "Must try harder", "You need to listen", "You can't disturb the other children", "You can't speak to others like that"! Is this evidence that a child is not being supported adequately?
