Health visitor attending meeting?

[Pinupgirl]

Nursery have asked me to attend meeting with ed psychologist re my dc.Is 4 and has slight speech delay for which I sought help from speech therapist.Have had letter from school saying that in attendence at meeting will be teacher,ed psych,sn teacher,speech therapist and now my hv. I have'nt even seen hv since dc was 1 so dont see need for her to attend.Tbh I feel a little ganged up on.Any advice? I am not concerned re my dc btw.

I don't blame you not being happy ied be questioning why all those ppl need to attend I have been the same but put a stop to it because I felt the same as you x

That's normal though its to ensure all needs of child with speech delay are being met and to prepare for the next stage e.g transition to school . Ed psyche at my sons meeting basically told all the professionals what needs to be done to address the speech delay and how to meet the child's needs bet you they won't all show up at the actual meeting though and doubt the HV will show up .

I would ring the ed psyche up and discuss your concerns it's very informal and its an excellent opportunity fir all professionals to have all the facts as well as share ideas and options
