Hello,
DS1 is 4 and starts school in September. He has hypermobility and associated gut/digestive problems and bladder control issues. He also has allergies and is on a MEWS-free diet.
On advice of another mum, I met with the school's inclusion manager today well ahead of September so we can get some systems in place to support him from the off. She was really helpful and seemed very kind etc. but I basically just listed off all these things, she took notes and we'll be meeting again in a couple of weeks with the head of the early years classes to discuss more.
What kind of things should we be discussing?
She suggested I bring any medical reports/notes/etc. I have with me.
We've talked a bit about supporting his toileting needs, whether packed lunch/amended school dinners might work (not sure?), whether he needs a care plan, how to manage administering his meds during school, can he do PE (not sure?) etc.
Any input much appreciated! Just want to make sure I"m flagging up the right things and asking the right questions.
