My son was diagnosed as having social communication difficulties at aged 5 and placed on the sen register. I was also told that he likely had adhd and to self refer to camhs as in our area they diagnose adhd. I tried for years to get an appointment but was always told he didn't meet the criteria.
My son is very intelligent and never stops talking or moving about, he literally can't sit still or be quiet.
Initially my son was well supported and had specialist teachers to advise the school on strategies to help him.
Over the years, the support was cut back but he seemed to be coping ok until the last year. I have been told by the head that he 'chooses his behaviour' as he had to spend a month, as punishment, in her office and with no distractions, not even a window to look out of, he was able to complete his work silently (he is terrified of her)
School have apparently taken him off the sen register and he is consistently sent out of class for talking.
We are at a point where he often talks about ending his life as things would be easier for me and the school.
Finally we are on the waiting list for camhs as we had to attend a&e last week as he was in such a state.
Can the school just remove him from the register without telling me? And punish instead of support him?
Sorry for the long post and thanks for reading
