Hi all
We've recently had an assessment of our 10 year old dd by an ed psych, and they feel she is HF ASC.
I'm feeling a bit lost, and don't know what to do or how to help. The ed psych has recommended we don't tell DD the diagnosis until she can meet with her mid Oct, in the meantime we have to look for secondary school in the Hertford area (any advice on that?) and look for support for her.
We've been told by the ed psych that there's no point in applying for an ECHP as they're rarely given in Herts, but that the school have been given all their SEND funding and you have to push them directly to get it. She says that there's little need for the official diagnosis to be rushed through as a result, as her report will be enough evidence to allow the school to channel funds.
Are there any good books for girls with ASD?
Any advice on where to go from here, especially what to ask of secondary schools.
Thanks!
