I had a name recommended to me but she never gets back me so I can't work with some one like no matter how good she is supposed to be.

I want someone who knows dyspraxia and speech problems ideally.

Who will look at ds a a whole and say share he struggles

Can summaries

Can spell out exactly what help ds needs from school to meet his needs

Stupid schools ed psych said he was above adverage for Lang and comprehension dispite salt, teacher, pead, private salt and lea speacail it's teacher saying he was down at the 1% score

Rather thaan EP, do you think you might need an OT for dyspraxia?

For my DS, I had to use an OT for dyspraxia, a Salt for speech. The EP only dealt in detail with his dyslexia - but then pulled all the other reports together to give an overall summary of eg type of school placement - but she didnt comment at all on the dyspraxia/speech specific provision.
