DS is 5 and has SEN so needs 1:1 provision. This is primarily done by one particular TA who we have known since he was in nursery, she’s great and I talk to her most days at pick up. He’s non verbal and has a number of difficulties accessing learning such as not wanting to listen to instructions. He’s very intelligent in many ways which they acknowledge e.g can read fluently and is fab at maths but, you know, he needs a lot of support and has struggled with the transition from reception to year 1 greatly.
Our NDN has recently become a TA at the school. She has young DC in a different school. She seems nice enough but wouldn’t say we’ve ever been close- just small talk, little gestures like taking parcels in for one another etc. I didn’t realise she was a TA in DS’s class, she just told me in passing she had become one after I saw her leaving there one day.
I received my DS’s most recent SENCO observation report (undertaken by the council team) and her name is listed as one of the TA’s present. This has made me feel really uneasy but I can’t fully articulate why. DH thinks it’s not a big deal at all. I guess I’m just worried about his/our privacy being protected and feel weird about the NDN who we aren’t really close to knowing personal info like this? Am I just being weird as DH thinks and it isn’t a big deal?
