Hi all would really appreciate some advice.
my son has been struggling more than ever since starting primary school. He is diagnosed with autism and has just been accepted for an Ehcp after a 11 month wait for decision.
having just read the plan I’m not feeling very hopeful
I thought he would get a specialist teacher to help him 1 to 1 but a lot of the stuff on the plan is relied upon the normal teachers and includes what they are already doing.
I am certain my son would be very different if he had a specialist teacher as he recently spent time learning with an Elsa trained teacher and came back from school a different child.
my son has stopped masking his difficulty’s and is now being perceived as strange by his peers because he is acting out his struggles and annoying others in class. He has been attacked by a group of 7 children who held him down and stamped on his chest and there was no reason from the boys for doing it.
its very sad because without the school struggles that he can’t cope with he is a lovely fun boy to be with and no one is getting to know this.
thanks for reading and please reply if you an offer advice
