My little girls almost 7 as spina bifida hydrocephlalus we have many problems with are local LEA and with support she gets we used to spend many months training up TA to do my daughters care then nurse would sign them off and and many occasions I've had to go in to school to do my daughters catherter as there is nobody to help as there of sick or handed in notice ... Last week my daughter couldn't go in school because nobody was there to care for her again is it right parents should go in to see to needs ? Also she's on her 9th helper in 3 years and to me that's to many people that's been involved

No, you shouldn't have to go into school. What would they do if you weren't available? I suspect they're not trying too hard just because they know they can call on you. It might be worth telling that you just aren't going to be able to come in in future, and that you expect your child to have the full time education that she is entitled to so you won't be keeping her at home again for any reason other than her own ill health. I suspect you'd find they can suddenly manage to sort their staffing out.

And give someone like SOS SEN a call.
