My son is due to start nursery soon, but lately I have heard about a lot of primary schools losing their TA's due to funding. I am aware how long echp can take and anxious to do all I can now to get my son into the best school for him.
My trouble is ... He's just 2 and a half ! Some parents of SN I have chatted with have said it isn't too early - 2 years isn't a vast amount of time to sort everything that needs sorted. Obviously I need to see how he copes in nursery yet too! That is mainstream but he will have a 1 to 1 in place there. I am honestly really worried about how he will cope as he doesn't like other kids much... or noise or business or singing ... yeh the list goes on ...
However I am aware kids can come on so much around this age !
My heart is set on a SN place for my sons sake more than anything. Is that bad? I feel like I am not being positive or hopeful. My son has good understanding and can talk a little bit (though very delayed) his main issues are sensory and challenging behaviours.
In a long winded way, I guess what I am asking is did you know when your dc was 2 and half wether they'd be suitable for mainstream - or not? Is it something I should not focus on for a while longer? I'm just so scared I won't have enough time to find him the right place.
