He is in Year 1, he really struggled through Reception...his symptoms all 'fit' (I was a teacher and taught many secondary aged students with the same thing, so my knowledge of symptoms is coming from experience...I just missed in in my own DS...chalked it up to just a busy kid, iyswim). His year 1 teacher is lovely, but this is her very first year teaching, so though we talked today about him having a SENCO perhaps assess him (we have also made an appt with GP to try and get a referral to have him tested, and to rule out anything else), I don't think she has had many experiences with any learning disabled children.
I'm just wondering how difficult this is going to be...I know that I'm just a layperson, but I know my kid, and I know that his struggling is a result of 'something', not just him. I'm fairly certain that it isn't AS...that was initially another consideration, but he doesn't fit the profile for even lower spectrum.
Anyway...totally rambling...can you give me any advice, or share with me your experiences with this?
