Wait for Ed Psychologist?

[mompa]

HI Can anyone please advise how long they waited for DC see Ed Psycholosist once diagnosed ASD

Our Ed Psych was involved in DS' diagnosis so not really sure.
Who made the diagnosis for your DC?

Paediatition made DX during a multi discipliniary assesesment with Occ Therapist and SLT

Not sure DX relevant - if he is having problems at school and they could do with advice about how to proceed, then you should be entitled to see Ed Psych - I don't think our Ed Psych service gives priority if you have a dx, but it may vary from one region to another. Our school is allocated a number of hours per term, so SENCO decides who to allocate the appointments to AFAIK- however you can refer yourself without involving the SENCO - I've no idea how they prioritise in that case.

Your school has a certain amount of hours per term to spend on an Ed Psych.

They will never want to put your son to the top of the list - but if a paed asks them to then they pretty much have to.

So, I would talk to the SENCO, but pretty much demand for it to happen this term or next term.

Good luck.
