Just had a phone call from school to inform me my son will be having an after school detention for punching another child, totally agree with him having a consequence but feel frustrated that the school haven't been listening to my concerns about how he isn't coping with break and lunch time, feel this could have been avoided if they had actually listened. I'll try to keep this short but not too much drip feeding, he is 10 on the waiting list for an autism assessment and struggles to walk away from situations, it just feels like the school only takes action after incidences rather than putting preventatives in place. How do I get them to put support in place before he becomes the problem child, he is very bright and 90% of the time a lovely boy but if this behaviour carries on that is all people are going to see. Sorry for the rant, hope it sort of makes sense. Any advice greatfully received.
