I didn’t know this so may help someone else if ur child is in nursery and u get ur dla inform them they can apply for extra funding for your child and ur entitled to an extra 15 hours in nursery I was informed this morning by nursery senco x

Wow really ? My little man does 15hrs weekday mornings . Never realised would be entitled to an additional 15. My senco never mentioned this and they’ve applied for eysen funding x

TheMFamily · 06/03/2024 12:03

Is yours with a DM already do you know? If you don't mind me asking :) xx

TheMFamily · 06/03/2024 12:04

On hold at the moment as had a Missed call from DLA number I'm 15 weeks exactly today but I rang yesterday to update my child's medication and was told it was in holding pile and all claims are taking 20 weeks and to ring next week but can they say its in holding pile and it be with a DM anyway?

Gemmaoscar · 06/03/2024 12:06

Anyone got the letter and feel they have overlooked a lot of the needs especially night time care needs think I’m going to ask them to re look at it x

@Gemmaoscar 100% overlooked - my 3 (and a half) year old, has suspected ADHD/ FASD / NAS, learning delay, (been to a private consultant) waiting to see community peadatric team, he's SENCO at nursery - and we have a EHCP pre-assessment next Wednesday - I sent all of this in as extra evidence but was only awarded LRM and it just said 1 hour additional toiletry needs on the letter we got from DLA

Hece we've put in a MR (just gone 2 weeks)

It's like they just haven't read the 6 page private consultant report, the two observation reports from nursery or the referall from nursery

Gemmaoscar · 06/03/2024 12:27

@bonzo yer it came this morning they have overlooked so much honestly it’s a joke xx

Gemmaoscar · 06/03/2024 12:28

@LancsMcG think I’m going to get them to look at it did u ring them or write nursery said they will have a look at it when I collect him and see what we can do I just feel like everything I’ve said has been dismissed x
