Hi all
I would like some advice.
My Son has been under a Pardiatrician since he started school at 4 years old. We all went through hell and back his first school year, due to the teachers not understanding what was wrong and the school showing no support. He lost all self esteem and said things like he wanted to be dead. The school leadership has now had an overhaul and all changed.
He is now 6. He has been held back a year at school so is in year 1 but should be in year 2. He is progressing academically in line with year 1. But is still a year behind. His main difficulty is with social and emotional - he really struggles. He misinterprets social cues/ situations which causes outbursts. Class is now more structured, but the playground is where he has most negative behaviour. He is still afraid in school and wants to escape.
We need a diagnosis in order to gain him the support at school.
To help this happen quickly we are willing to fund the assessments.
Could anyone recommend the best centre to take him, where all of the professionals are in the same place. Where he will get a diagnosis in a day.
Thank you so much
