To hope that HT would believe doctor's assessment?

DD1 has been diagnosed (through the NHS if that's relevant) as HFA/Aspergers. Her HT has now received the report, and we had a meeting today, where the HT repeatedly said she didn't believe it, and the doctor didn't know what they were talking about. It doesn't exactly matter hugely as she doesn't need a great deal of help at school, but I just hoped the diagnosis would mean there would be no more need for these sort of discussions.

I think it was badly phrased more than anything wasn't it? I read it as you deal with the issues the individual children in front of you have rather than the ones you think they should have because of their diagnosis.

It's the polar opposite of Goblins can't have ASD becaue they don't exhibit XY or Z in school.
