Not quite sure if this is the right place to post but can anyone offer any advice.
DS is 5 and started school last September. He had attention problems before starting school and glue ear was diagnosed, but cleared up before he started school in September.
He is still having concentration problems so they have asked my permission to get advice from a professional. Professional advised stuff such as a special cushion to stop him from fiddling in his chair previously, which has helped him sit still, and they are now going to ask her to come and observe him in the classroom. Other issues that they have told me of include difficulty with large motor skills, not able to hold his hands above his head etc, clumsiness, tripping out of his shoes (so we have bought him boots to try to help him keep them on).
What sort of thing will this professional be looking for? Does anyone have any experience of similar?
