I just wondered, if any of you have a moment you could share your thoughts/experiences... not just for my benefit but anyone who has been thinking/worrying about this and has a child with SN.

I am thinking that I will enrol my ds for school this week (Scotland). He is 4.7 (no dx, language is "disordered" according toSALT, ASD "traits" according to consultant Paediatrician). DS will be 5.3-ish when he starts school in August, there has been some talk of deferring his start, which would mean he would be in ms nursery another year(I am not keen on the idea of him being 6+ and starting school).

Teachers/SALTs and other carers could maybe have input too? In what things to consider trying to have in place?

Is there anything I can do to prepare ds for starting school?
