My DS was diagnosed with ADHD 2 years ago (not a shock). He is quite academic: sits comfortably in the top half of top sets for Maths and English in a very academic school. He is in Year 5.
We had a parents' evening recently where our Head basically implied that we should "manage our expectations" because no matter how well he does in the entrance exams to 'very good' schools, many "are not supportive of SEN children". My husband heard the conversation differently, but I read it as: "don't bother with the very selective schools".
I must stress that the school has been nothing but supportive of his needs and his teacher is particularly optimistic about his opportunities.
Has anyone with an ADHD boy had any success with getting into super-selectives at 11+? If so, and appropriate, can you name the school. Thank you.
