social skills workshops/mentoring schemes

[sprout2]

Hello,

Can anyone suggest any social skills workshops for my son? He is 13 and doesn't have very good social skills, (he's dyslexic and suffers intermittent hearing loss due to glue ear, which I think are both contributory in the problematic way he goes about socialising). I would really like to hear of any groups that help children who struggle with this.

Also can anyone also suggest a mentoring scheme?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Sprout2

It might seem like an obvious answer, but have you spoken to his head of year?

I'm a school governor (although Primary school) and I know that most schools will have access to a list of various workshops in the borough.

Good luck
