Went to the open day this morning - very impressive. It felt like they were doing, as standard, for everyone, all the accommodations we have been fighting to get in our primary school. It just seemed amazing.
Any parents here, or anyone know anything about it? I want to know whether it would really be right for a child with SEN who might need things to be even more tailored; would they be even more flexible?
My daughter is Y5 and ASD, (probably also will turn out to be AuDHD once we get to the bottom of things). Also very high cognitive scores, with sensory processing stuff. So some parts of her brain go 100mph analysing the universe while at the same time she also can't work out why her sock is hurting her and if she needs a drink.
Massive burnout last year. Just getting back into school 3 days a week, but slow progress. We are trying to work out whether mainstream school will ever give her the depth and self direction she needs to be motivated academically while also catering to her social and sensory needs.
We went to Twyford ARC recently, a state option, who said rather grimly they don't accept children not coming in, they go round to their houses and get them, which made me feel a bit dispirited that there could ever be an academic school with flexibility if someone was overwhelmed or needed to reduce timetable a bit.
Anyone who can offer advice on Liberty school particularly, or secondary transfer for someone with this profile, I would be grateful!
