When we went it was a 3 tier system. Tier 1 took a history and some info about issues and asked us what we wanted out of them basically.

Tier 2, in depth discussions around difficulties, sent questionnaire to school and gathered together reports done by SALT, OT and Paed. Met with Dd3 to check out her imagination and discuss her difficulties(which she wasnt recognising at the time).

Tier 3 psychiatrist completed a DISCO assessment with me and DP, she also spoke to staff at the new school we had moved Dd3 to.
She dx'ed Dd3 at the end of all this but it did take a yearShock

Having said that Dd3's old school were completely unsupportive , which slowed the whole process to a crawlSad

Hopefully your experience may be quicker, good luckSmile
