Sorry to hear about the email from the class teacher open, nothing like a good kick in the teeth 
makes you feel like shit doesn’t it when they spell it out. Ds first annual review so end of reception the senco (it was a different Senco back then) said ds was doing well academically and he was 40-60 months in almost all areas and although still behind she thought given his diagnosis he was doing well. She was a Senco who didn’t really like to offend I found.
Then the second annual review end of year 1 with the new senco (who has worked at the school years and is also the assistant head and more straight talking) said she recommends ds moves to SS, he’s a lost part in a MS and he’s making almost no progress etc very different reviews. It was from that point onwards the school hounded me to move him.
Ds is all over the shop with his development, he’s at year 1 level for his reading so about a year behind, he’s on light blue band which is level 4 but reading is his one strength he co operates every single day with that and really does show an interest, and is improving all the time.
His writing he’s about reception level, he can write letters he just doesn’t / can’t write sentences. If we tell him exactly what to write the words don’t have finger spaces it’s all one looonnnng word, he uses random capital letters and the letters are really big etc.
His maths is non existent he thinks 1 add 1 is 50 and when he counts it’s still thirty eight, thirty nine, thirty ten, thirty eleven, bless him.
Socially he’s still like a toddler.
@LightTripper I still haven’t heard from the new school, they haven’t even rung to tell me he has a place 😂 the local authority did that about a month ago, so I very much doubt for after Easter now. X
