my little girl has been diagnosed with a speech disorder she has a hearing impairment and is under senco but feel like my girl is not learning in a mainstream school and is been pushed out by the teacher that sends her to the nuresry room, tonight she told us she doesnt want to go back to school and is really upset, what would other mums do about this

Have you been in touch with the school to talk through your concerns and find out from them what help she is getting at present? Does she have an IEP? Is she seeing SALT for therapy? If you don't already I would suggest pushing further for a diagnosis if possible and looking to see if she can be statemented so that there is quantified provision for her.

Ask the school about completing a CAF form - you may get mixed reviews about this process reading on here, but it is basically a way to try and get everyone involved with her and her issues in one place and talk things through and make action plans. For us the experience so far has been very positive for DD#1 (yr1) and whilst we still don't have answers we have a lot more information and also advice for diagnostics which hopefully in turn will lead to better assistance in school too - though her school are very proactive already thankfully.
