"Off rolling" isn't this illegal?

Talk about blame the victim. If a year 7 hit me first I’d hit them back too despite their age. Play with matches and you’re going to get your fingers burned.

Before your meeting with the school, get copies of their bullying and discipline policies, and at the meeting ask them exactly how they have implemented them to keep your child safe.

It very much sounds as if they should have an EHCP. Use the IPSEA guide as a starting point - https://www.ipsea.org.uk/asking-for-an-ehc-needs-assessment

To be fair a 'a emo ftm trans kid' would never have had a good experiance at school without indipendant lessons/staying in at breaks ?????

Yes it shouldn't be the case with rules/uniforms/modern parenting/teaching

But you also need either 'save it for the weekend' or take extra measures to be safe aswell as contacting school

Either that, or the bullies are learning behaviours from transphobic parents.

Realistically this is the situation the school and LEA has to deal with because the parents, that is ADULTS give in to children who demand to be different. Being kind and indulging these fantasies gets nowhere.

They sound more like a tomboy. Which is normal. It seems ridiculous that they should be bullied out of school. Are the school not ashamed they can’t stop their pupils from bullying another child?

Is there not a school somewhere nearish that has a stricter ethos and won’t tolerate bullying? Or a school that is better equipped to support a child with what seems to be a range of SEN?
Have you tried asking your local authority for an EHC assessment at least?

It all sounds like a bit of a mess. I realise you don't think the previous incident was relevant but if they themselves have been disciplined for physical assault (whatever the back story) it does affect procedures.

Are they under CAMHs?

I would make a EHCP request the dyslexia/ADHD/ASD are likely educational needs and the school are saying they can't meet your child's needs and keep them safe. This may mean they are educated at home but with LA paying for tuition and exam fees rather than being home scored where it days to you. Or they might be in a small specially resources provision setting for children with emotional difficulties who can't attend mainstream see you in a bit Sony love you darlingif there is one in your area.

If they are autistic, and have dyslexia and adhd then you have a very good chance of getting an EHCP.

There is a lot of paperwork, but there are organisations to help with filling it in and supporting you,

Try SOSSEN and posting on the SEN boards on here. There is a long running thread for people applying for EHCPs.

If we dare complain about the lack of sen support at my child's school we are advised there's plenty of other schools to send our child to.
They let bullying continue and try off roll the victim!

But either way the world doesn’t have to know know unless they trying to date

But it's completely apparent what biological sex year ten children are by looking at them with your eyes.

Op I have seen a number of teens who are home educated try to fit into the secondary education system

I have not seen a successful one yet.

Some managed to survive in school but most didn't manage.

Teens are extremely socially brutal and secondary schools are not a forgiving environment. Trans is currently an extremely controversial topic (Cass report etc) and your child will stick out.

Are they ND? Can you try to get home tutoring or similar provided through EOTAS if they have an EHCP?

But op has said that it's obvious child is female, but wants to be seen as male. I don't think it's fair to hide from people they're sharing ablutions and changing areas with someone of the opposite sex in order to appease one person.

Sorry, not segregated, de-registered

Off rolling is illegal. The school should not do it although some try.

You do sound like you are in a difficult situation if the school don't think they can keep your child safe.

Some possibilities which might be options:

Child stays on roll tutors are sent out by the school

Child stays on roll and physically goes to school but is in a separate learning space (Sen dept or equivalent) and has 1:1 support or group lessons

You segregated child and home school - be aware the entrance fees for GCSEs can be substantial so if you are tempted to do this maybe worth discussing with current school about doing GCSEs with them? Some will permit some won't

Does your child have an EHCP?

They can fulfill that via many means though the Lea.

Even if they're "more of the issue than the op cares to admit" the LA still has a responsibility to educate the child. They can't just off roll them rather than deal with bullying.

If your child is asd and adhd then doesn't the school have a duty to them in respect of their disabilities?

Is there a ringleader/s of the gang and have they been punished for their bullying too?

I have some sympathy for your child. I was bullied at school, and it only stopped when i snapped and hit back.

If the other kid doesn't want consequences they shouldn't bully a vulnerable peer.

With the publication of the Cass report, the school will need to tread very carefully here. It is likely that they will wish to avoid being accused of socially transing a child.

Transgender Trend has some resources you may find useful. I would be pushing for mental health support for your child as hard as you can.

Sounds like there maybe more issues than what’s been posted if they have only moved school in year 10. Why did they leave the last school and are you sure your child isn’t more of the issue than you’d really like to admit.

Fair point. They should use a unisex/disabled toilet. But either way the world doesn’t have to know know unless they trying to date.

They don't have to be 'threat' what if the boys just don't want a girl in the toilets with them?
