The beauty of this is that Prof Hastings has managed to compress a huge amount of important information into a very accessible form to empower parents to ensure their children are getting what an LEA is expected to provide for them.

thanks, moondog, very interesting read.

I have dd1 all sorted for the moment, at a great school with fab staff.

however dd2 has just got her dx, and I expect I will need to beat her teachers round the head with her dx report to get them to take any notice whatsoever. this will be a handy checklist for me to keep to when faced with their blathering nonsense re: support packages and how they can't change anythign as it isn't fair on the others etc.

This is great thanks vv much for sharing x

Exactly.
Ignore the flannel (politely of course) and cut to the chase.
If they can answer these questions, then you know things are going well.
