My son started reception yesterday and I'm really worried about him. He is 4 and has struggled at nursery (especially with Covid) but had seemed to settle in the last 6-8 months. The nursery raised concerns with me about my son (behaviour, speech etc) and so he was assessed by our helath vistor (x3 times) and then eventually our local children's hospital for autism but they subsequently discharged him and said he wasn't autistic. It was the same with Speech and Language Therapy, no further action was needed. However, he struggles with routine, taking instructions, sitting down, focussing, eating etc and still has huge tantrums daily! Today when I picked him up (half day) he wouldn't come out of the classroom and started to have a huge tantrem, laying on the floor crying and not communicating and acting frustrated. I may be paranoid but I feel like the teachers judge and probably think he has no discipline/routine at home, which just isn't true. I have an older child (7) who is treated exactly the same and we have never had any of the same issues. I can't help but think there is something wrong and he will struggle in that environment and also that the school will struggle to cope with him. I honestly don't know what to do next, i just feel so helpless and anxious and most of all worried for him.
