Any advice welcome… I’m from Gloucestershire my 6 year old is currently going through a possible diagnosis assessments. He has been seen by teacher advisory and educational physiologist has SENCO involvement they are also applying for ECHP we have completed all the questionnaires home/teachers ones and he has his first appointment with the community paediatrician in 2 days, does anyone know what to expect from this appointment? I know all areas are different. The head teacher spoke to me personally today and explained they think it’s time they start looking at if he would do better in a smaller school as they’ve tried everything mainstream wise, he’s spending more time out the classroom and with the headteacher at the moment😢 any advice would be appreciated thank you.

I am sorry you are going through this, but once the right space and situation is found for your lovely one then he will thrive. Head is basically saying special school…or PRU. Doctor will ask some questions, observe him, maybe do a questionnaire. Might go to school to see him.
